As a result of the discoveries that have been made in the field of neuroscience, there is no credible evidence to support a notion of immaterial "soul" which could surivie the death of the body. Rather it is highly probable that our consciousnesses are made up of the same perishable stuff as rest of our bodies.

Was that a trick statement?
Ah... I believe you are saying that the soul is another of those handy things that cant be proved or disproved because they exist in the supernatural realm. or something.
This is known as a self supporting delusion.
No evidence is needed to support the mad statement as the nature of the statement includes the reason why there can be no evidence.
