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?
Despite what your peers say (logical fallacy: "Ad populum" ) Phycology says there is indeed a soul:

So No I do not agree
I follow the evidence not popular thought to identify fact, you might want to give that a try.
In order to commit a fallacy, you have to use it in an argument, which SerenelyBlue did not. Thanks for beginning your post with a complete irrelevancy.
Phycology is the scientific study of algae.
An opinion blog post in Psychology Today is not peer-reviewed medical research (and the author seems to be another Chopra type claiming quantum weirdness=eternal soul).
Anyone who read your post and the linked blog post and believed it knows less now than they would have if they had skipped it. Your claim to follow the evidence is completely laughable, you don't even seem to know what evidence of a soul would be. Hint: 'we don't understand something' or 'we don't understand everything' does not mean 'souls are realz!'.
I'll have more respect for you if it turns out you didn't even read the blog post and just grabbed the first thing on the internet that sounded 'sciencey' that you thought supported your position. If you read it and thought it was really evidence in your favor, that's just sad.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
