As far as I'm concerned none, but assuming for the sake of argument that there is one.

You are nothing more than your brain in motion, destroy the structure, no structure or to make the motion you call you. No different than if you destroy a car engine, the shell of the car may still be there but it won't be in tact to carry out the function to allow for speed to happen.
You could argue that those who do believe in a soul think they survive their bodies, but their are plenty of atheists that don't buy the idea of a soul, including me.
I'm not trying to prove the soul, I'm trying to disprove it. I'm playing devil's advocate. And by no-one disputes this I mean no Christian disputes it.
Thats easy to debunk, but I would not recommend anyone conduct the following experiment. I would not recommend someone blow their brains out with a shotgun then prove they can communicate after that. You also never see anyone communicate when brain dead even if the body is alive.
Nothing to disprove in reality, it is their own wishful thinking and or ego and or fear of being finite.
