Ok, I understand fully what you are saying. I don't know where to start in arguing back because you are so steadfast in your belief. Might I add very simply, and I know this might just be construed as antagonising but this is what I believe: God works in mysterious ways, we don't know what the soul is for certain, but I imagine it is some sort of ethereal body for all our sentiments, memories and consciousness. I know you find it hard to belief the proposition of the soul but contemplate its plausibility, scientifically or not and you might be remarkably surprised.

Might I add this quotes as well? From the Bible: "Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it" (Ecclesiastes 12:7) and "And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." (Genesis 2:7). In the New Testament can be found a statement by Paul the Apostle, "And so it is written, the first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam [was made] a quickening spirit." (1 Corinthians 15:45).
