OP
I don't think the soul per se would be immediately affected, but the Mind (soul+brain) obviously

Wouldn't the soul leak out when the head is first removed? Asking for a friend. nt

Would. The brain can help or hurt soul development, so the soul could be affected over time.

The mind is the person.

(10,136 posts)4. When identical twins are formed
which one gets the soul? Current thinking is that identical twins come about when a fertilized egg splits in half sometime after conception. And since Anti-Choicers keep telling us that life begins and the soul is implanted at conception, does that mean each twin is only half a person? Or is one a person and the other not?
And I'm not going to even start on vanishing twins and other odd areas of human conception.
