People who think sheep are killed for their wool are so hilarious to me. Does your barber slit your throat whenever you get a haircut?? Are you a returning customer to Sweeney Todd? Lmao it grows back, fools.
This is completely ignoring the fact that the sheep’s soul is stored in its wool. So sure, the body remains, but the spirit, the essence of the sheep, that’s gone forever, and then as the wool regrows a new soul moves in.
What
Same for me, I get a new soul with every haircut. That’s why my personality changes so much.
Tumblr citizenship means being completely unsure if the person posting about sheep souls is being 100% serious or is just taking the piss.
misleading. it is in fact TEETH and not hair which contain the soul
your whole body gets ship-of-theseus’d every few years or so, EXCEPT your tooth enamel. tooth enamel is the only matter in your body that doesn’t get replaced (or so they say)
and since there is no true body-mind divide, whatever makes you YOU must therefore be stored in your teeth. and tooth loss is therefore the ONLY thing that can change your inner self. This is why children (pre-baby-tooth-change) are so fundamentally different in personality from their adult selves. And why old people lose their minds around the same time they lose their teeth
the word “identity” is linguistically linked to teeth and you can CLAIM that’s because dental records are useful for IDing bodies, but cmon
