Welcome to EvC
Since there is no evidence that something called a soul exists, how would you go about studying it? If there is a soul that can be tested scientifically, then wouldn't that mean it is simply material and not spiritual?

Re: Thanks! Evidence of the Soul
Well, neither of those are evidence of a soul. At best they might be unexplained events.
​
But that also misses the second question I asked. If we can test and measure 'soul' then is it not just another material object and not spiritual?
