The concept of when a fetus acquires a soul is a matter of personal belief and varies among different religions and cultures. Some believe that a soul is present at the moment of conception, while others believe it occurs at a specific point during fetal development, such as quickening or birth. Ultimately, there is no scientific consensus on when a fetus acquires a soul.
St. Thomas Aquinas derived his theory of ensoulment based on the teachings of Aristotle and the biological knowledge of his time. He believed that a male fetus received a soul 40 days after conception because he considered male development to be faster, while he posited that a female fetus received a soul 80 days after conception due to what he perceived as the slower nature of female development.
The concept of when the soul enters the body is a matter of personal belief and varies among different cultures and religions. Some believe the soul enters at conception, while others believe it happens at a later stage of development. There is no scientific evidence to support a specific point in pregnancy when the soul enters the body.
True. Plato believed that music had the power to influence one's emotions and character, and thus could be used to help harmonize the soul by promoting moral development and self-control.
Plato's psychological beliefs centered around the concept of the tripartite soul, which consists of reason, spirit, and appetite. He believed that reason should govern over the other two parts to achieve a harmonious and just soul. Plato also stressed the importance of education and self-reflection in the development of a virtuous soul.
Aristotle believed in three kinds of soul: the vegetative soul (responsible for nutrition and growth), the sensitive soul (responsible for perception and movement), and the rational soul (unique to humans, responsible for reasoning and intellect).

Baha'is believe that humanity's time on earth is for the spiritual development of the soul, similar to how a fetus in the womb develops the physical attributes needed for this existence. In the spiritual world the soul will either be nearer to, or further from, God depending upon the soul's progression in this life. "Heaven" is nearness to God, while "hell" is distance from God.

I guess it depends on your point of view. In some cultures, inanimate objects have (or can acquire) souls. This is a view to which I personally subscribe - i.e. I don't believe human beings are more entitled to a soul than anything else in the universe. This is not a view expressed by the Judeo/Christian/Islamic tradition, however - so you will encounter strong opposition if you adopt this view.
