Ah right, i thought you were reducing it to the brain and what it produces. So would you say the soul dies with the person?
Just to relate what some others have posited throughout history. Some think the soul is the spark of life itself. Some think it is the hylomorphic combination of mind and body. Some think the soul is the form or archetype of the human being. Some believe we only participate in a collective soul distributed to all life.
