Yes, and most interesting is that once we become atheist we don't believe in a soul and once we know who we are we do not have a soul, go figure.

The soul is the part of us that we do not know and once we know who we are we have no soul left. It is our mandate in the bible to get to know the depth, width and breadth of the Lord out God -- which is who we really are in the image of God, and thus Lord God 'and' God to be 'consciously' aware of who we are without a soul left to uncover.

In this sense is a Christian a soul-less person and does not have to deny his soul. The problem is that without a soul there can be no faith and no doubt but only Pure Reason and therefore Christian cannot be believers and go to church (not temples in the city of God).

If you look at Jaguar Prince's argument he/she insists that Magdalene is the favorite disciple and that would be the new persona of Joseph after his soul has become rational knowledge.

This would allign well with the "no sea" concept of Rev.21:1 and then in verse 2 the new Jerusalem comes tumbling down from heaven ready to meet her new husband in Rome now as Gods dwelling place where all things are new.
