H- Well, let me try to explain why I think it muddies the discussion. You have been using the term "soul" within the context of a religious argument. This would imply to anyone reading that you are using the theological definition of soul as a spiritual part of a human having the characteristics of immortality, separateness and the capability of a relationship with a higher being. The first definition of the soul as an animating component of man, a principle of nature, has nothing to do with immortality or God, or the reality of the soul as you define it in the religious "Save the Soul" way. Many people do NOT believe they have a soul in the spiritual sense, regardless of YOUR belief. ANd if you are going to say that you are up[set with X because she said she hates parts of your faith, and that your faith is about Saving your Soul in the Christian sense of immortality, then you can't just suddenly change the implied meaning - to that of the soul being the energizer bunny part of man, (a very old theory), without the religious, spiritual element or you gut its importance to you and one has to wonder why you are so angry at her.
