I don't believe in Christianity primarily because of the brain

There iw no use for a soul.  Modern science is showing that the brain is responsible for all the functions human bodies have.  I evolved into a complex individual, but when my brain ceases to work, I cease to exist.  Christianity is just myth and superstition.

Do you agree?

No, I don't agree. Your position is that there is no soul (not simply agnostic about it). How do you know this? Modern science has not explain the mind or consciousness let alone how it evolved. Since humans are designed to naturally believe in the supernatural, we therefore have an intuition about a soul. Seems to me that on one side of the scale you have no scientific knowledge in which to make a determination and on the other side of the scale, we have a fairly universal intuition that one exists. So, if you can't defend you premise there is no soul, then your conclusion therefore '...there is no heaven... and ...Christianity is just a myth' is unsupported and just an opinion.
