Soul from another time?

Think it's possible for a soul to be, rather than from an alien -> a human, from another time to now?

Of course! Anything is possible!
Care to make a new thread about it Iz? I dont want to clutter up Mnax's thread...

Here it is

Anyways, since this is separate now the reason I asked:

When it comes to technology/software (You know, programming, fixing games with problems, making computers work, like mine, when they get messed up and so on..) I often have ideas no one else seems to have, and people say I'm "ahead" of my time.
Think it's possible my soul could be from the future, even just a few years from now?

Yes I think so... Do you have an idea of what time your soul may be from? Perhaps you were born in the future, died, and then chose to live an earlier past?
In the universe, there is no time, just... what humans perceive as time...
So you could think your from the future, but in actual fact thats just your past...
Ok let me try and explian this...
We are used to time going in a straight line right?
Monday, tuesday, wednesday?
Say your soul is born on wednesday, and today is monday.
You could be born in the future.
Or you could simple be using a differeny measure of time, just travelling backwards in time, or just... skipping time periods. Your soul can do anything it wants.
Hope that made even a little bit of sense....

Uhhh....

Fantasy books have gotten my used to thinking of time more of as a spiral..

Say your soul is born on wednesday, and today is monday.
You could be born in the future.

Sounds like Merlin. (You know, from Camelot?) ;D

just travelling backwards in time, or just... skipping time periods.

As of now, I have no "extra" memories, that seem out-of-place in this time.

Hope that made even a little bit of sense....

Lemme think about it, maybe it'll make more sense later today.

The soul transcends time. It is eternal.

The soul does not come from any time.
It does not come from the future or the past...
It does not "come" at all.

It exists in the eternal now.
