I found these two definitions of soul in the online dictionary.
1. the principle of life, feeling, thought, and action in humans, regarded as a distinct entity separate from the body, and commonly held to be separable in existence from the body; the spiritual part of humans as distinct from the physical part. ... 4. the emotional part of human nature; the seat of the feelings or sentiments.
I think we could all agree that human beings have a soul in the sense of definition 4. The question would be whether we believe that the soul can exist without the body as suggested in definition 1. I happen to believe that it can.
