I so want to say to you that that is just "b#llocks" but I won't ... instead I will simply say that you've made a number of assertions. Now justify them.
How exactly? Those are common observations of people's idea of what the soul is. I suspect that you don't accept the soul as existent, so of course to you this is meaningless. The ideas ask you to step outside of your own understanding and consider other peoples.

Can you show us anything that is pretty much universally agreed to exist for which there is no evidence?
I'll take that as a no.

I was asking for a definition of the soul to support your interpretation.
