What was the definition of 'soul' that he was using when he said that and what distinction did he make between humans and animals and life? You love to mischaracterize nearly everything about anyone you don't agree with.
His own words were quite clear. In response to Kuhn's question, Moreland believes that single and multi-cellular organisms have an immaterial aspect to them. It's borderline animism.
Paraphrasing, he said that any life that is greater than the sum of its parts has a least a rudimentary soul. He was also quite clear that he thought only humans have an immortal soul--existing on past the death of its body (so the title of this thread is nothing but made up, unhinged hatred for people you are just not equipped to understand).
