Yes there are clearly real magic questions like why are we, where are we etc but not if we have a soul

We can't even define what intelligence is, and soul is a much subtler matter.

The idea of a soul independent of our body is fantasy and not based on anything.

We know that you can't survive without a brain. We know that your personality changes if your brain gets damaged.

It's very far fetched to talk about soul as anything else than just fantasy.
