Alternately, a false prophet would have dissembled and said, ‘It’s a secret that only God knows’. Oddly enough, this is exactly what Mohammed did.

Quote:I don't know much about other religions, but Islam acknowledges that the soul is undefinable, unknowable:
"And they ask you about the soul. Say: The soul is one of the commands of my Lord, and you are not given aught of knowledge but a little." (Qur'an 17:85)
This line of revelation purportedly came to the Islamic Prophet when a group of Jews challenged him to reveal the reality of the soul.
