I understand why you make this argument though; Christians have a very romanticized idea of the soul. Not me. The soul doesn't function to well for me after death or brain trauma or something. The soul needs the body for stimuli. If the body becomes damaged, the soul does not function well. The only thing the soul can do is understand immaterials in animals. Humans get a small bit of difference in the soul, "universal knowledge" and "will". When there is no body, there is nothing to act, even if willed. When the body is damaged, the universal knowledge and will stay, but the ability for the soul to receive decent stimuli has dropped dramatically. This is practiced by nearly no Christians anymore. It's a concept called "soul sleep".
Really? What cavernous place have you dug that from? Seriously. Have you read what you wrote?
