Somehow "biblical" and "evidence" just don't seem to go well together, at least not until someone comes forward with some evidence for thinking the bible is more than a book of Jewish fables.
Let me rephrase what I wrote,
There are no Bible references telling us that man was born with an immortal soul as Roman Catholic and Reformed doctrine would have us believe. On the contrary, there are clear Bible references telling us that in the beginning man was made mortal with the ability to gain immortality.
The Bible also tells us that immortality is now dependent upon the knowledge and understanding of the revelation of the God revealed there. How a man reacts to that knowledge and understanding will determine how he will spend the rest of eternity.
If you or anyone else here think they have proof the Bible tells us every condemned soul will live in torment forever then tell us where those Bible references are.
Anyone who says the Bible tells us every man has been given an immortal soul is clearly not speaking the truth.
