I believe in Anatman - no self, no soul.
A thought can form without a soul - it is known as a mindstream. If you studied Einstein's Extra Dimensions theory, the mindstream is akin to the fourth or fifth dimension where it is not just a stationary "object" or "lifeform" but it is a continuous form of existence that resides in both space and time.
A mindstream is how we take rebirth into future lives. It is a canvas that absorbs every experience as an unbroken line of memory.

I don't force myself to appear "grounded" - that's your projection of me in your mind. Some people are afraid of grounded individuals because of the willpower they possess. A bit sad but I understand.

I'm human in the eyes of many thank you. At least 6-7 billion people see me in human form. If I wasn't human, a sex forum wouldn't intrigue me. I wouldn't be able to feel a woman's body.

In the end of the day, the question of a "soul" is more of the question of "what is consciousness"? Who is watching who? If you're talking to yourself in your head, whose "ears" are you listening from? Who is the watcher of your actual thoughts, your projections?

That was a good question there GFM, although it took you ages to come up with such queries.
