::I think you're spinning your wheels a bit unless you can get something more concrete. Wanting to debate philosophical questions isn't going to make it into the final article in any form that detracts from the 'concise' nature of conservapedia. This isn't wiki. Trying to be controversial for the sake of being controversial isn't what conservapedia is all about. On the other hand, if you dig up meaningful information that adds to the knowledge of the soul, then by all means it will find its way into the article. I included your question on the soul in regard to abortion because that is a meaningful consideration. Talking about if twins have 1/2 a soul or what happens with chimeras is silly. If you want to dig and get research on the early church fathers and their concept of a soul and how that ties into modern brain function, some form of that would probably stay as well.

== Regarding the soul and animals ==
My knowledge on this is a bit rusty, but what is the official doctrine of churches on the presence of souls in animals? If my memory serves me well, the churches agree that animals are granted temporary souls in order in inhabit Earth, but only humans have permanent everlasting souls. The exception (again with the memory!) is Buddhism, which believe in reincarnation, hence, the soul is permanant untill achieving nhirvana (spelling?)
