Reread my post. I provided mountains of proof (I'm not going to retype it, so you're just going to have to try a little harder to comprehend).

If you still don't see it, read it again, and think deeply about it.

Here's more proof that I didn't list:

1) The earth, for millions of years, has stayed in the perfect position from the sun to support life. That alone is proof that we're more that just soulless accidents (think about the odds that the earth would stay in that perfect position if there were not greater powers at work that science is incapable of understanding), and completely disproves the atheist's short-sighted views of the workings of the universe.

2) Your point of view: without a soul, you'd be like a computer, and you wouldn't have a point of view, nor feelings. The fact that you DO have a point of view is very obvious proof that you're not a zombie, but have a spirit.

3) The fact that life exists at all is proof of some kind of greater power. You ask for proof? Look all around you; in every direction you look, the proof is right there under your nose. The magic of the soul is everywhere.

Now where's your proof that we're zombies? Where's your alternate explanations for the points I've brought up (you've been quick to shoot down my ideas, but you've got nothing to replace them. Simply saying "evolution" is NOT an alternate explanation, because that begs the question "why do we exist and evolve in the first place".)

Just the fact that you can read and respond to me is proof; why else would you bother if you had no core, soul, heart, or spirit and were just a soulless object?

Now if by proof, you mean something from the lab, then you've got a long way to go to understand the way that the mysteries of the universe work. Spirituality is something you understand by intuition, it can't be put into a test tube, measured, or controlled. The flow of the soul is free, and always maintains a degree of mystery (that's the beauty of life, is that we're constantly rediscovering the universe's mysteries).

For further study of the workings of the soul, I recommend the book, The Soul's Code by James Hillman. It is a psychology book (but looks at it from the standpoint of our core, our soul, our heart, or whatever you want to call it) which really helped me see the light (as there's been times in my life when I was a borderline atheist, but I knew in my heart is always felt wrong).

I know you're probably close-minded to that sort of thing, but I'm sure it would help you see life in a new light.
