Please prove that souls exist and that they are either resurrected or reincarnated

Most religions claim that souls exist. Some religions claim that souls are immortal and are reincarnated after the death of the body while other religions claim that souls are immortal and are resurrected after the death of the body. Can anyone please prove that souls exist and are either resurrected or reincarnated? Thank you.

I was pretty sure it was, but I was playing it safe in case I had misunderstood you or you had changed your mind. Okay, so what is the physical evidence of this physical mind?

What do you mean by physical evidence? Surely all evidence is physical - naturally so.

Do you believe that the mind/consciousness is truly non-physical, or is it that you lean that way until you are shown otherwise?

No, not all evidence is physical (logical evidence, for instance). The belief that all evidence is physical is self-defeating because there isn't physical evidence of that belief.

Yes, I believe the mind is non-physical. No, it's not the default position. Neither is yours. What evidence do you have that the mind is physical.

Tanager, I find this incredibly disingenuous. If you aren't aware of the evidence, you have been arguing in bad faith. I am very well versed in the claims you make for a non-physical mind.

Be honest: Have you researched or ever been told about the evidence for a material basis for the mind?
