But why are we talking about the bible at all? How is it supposed to be an authoritative reference book for matters relating to the soul? Pettifoggery at its worst.
Do chickens have souls? Perhaps we should start with an unambiguous, verifiable description of the soul we are alleged to possess. Then we could go looking for it in other animals. In the mean time you may as well be talking about the presence and relative strength of 'the force'. Of course you like that ambiguity so long as it is a tale you're spinning. It provides you all the cover you need carry on your charade.
