The same could be said for a soul, or your consciousness. You're *using* it, aren't you? Huh? HUH!Q?!??

The fact that we don't have the abilities to measure something is not a reason to occlude something. That's called ignorance, and basing presumptions on ignorace. that's not what "Science" is "supposed" to be about. So much dogma to it...
But anyway, all I'm trying to say is language is just as much math as anything else. When you read religious texts, or spiritual texts and keep that in mind it might make more sense and give you something to investigate upon to see it's other effects.
Did you know alot of the hindu scripts/chants/poetry are actually mathematics? They have one chant that wittles down to pi at like the 23rd number when translated into numerical form. COINCIDENCE?

Also, besides that, judging by your theory everytime we get a papercut we would become different people. Which, i guess judging by how i handle situations in life could be considered true! But maybe you need to do math on it. You're you +this, or you're you +that. Right now you're you + a body(at x age) / situations in life.guiding you towards vectors and more vectors. If you get a papercut you're you - a few cells. Simple math!
Also, not all ideas of the "Soul" are the same. I think the basic ideas are, but with rosicrucians or buddhists or gnosticism or various other things that believe things are eternal but not, the only eternal thing about it is it's selfless-but-attaching nature. The actual human being is just pieces gathered throughout it's travel of eternity... the "Lipika" as some call it. Some people think the soul never changes, and i think it's because they are talking about the basic thing, the eternal nondestructive nature of things. I mean, technically, the universe can never absolutely cease to exist, just like it can never technically entirely exist. So that is the "Soul". Everything else is ideas based upon that, built upon it(An eternity of flux and change will do that for ya); most of it's dealing with energies, radiations, and gravity.
