the same spacial-temporal region, so brains cannot contai souls.
Brains are intrinsically physical, and souls are intrinsically non-physical, so brains and souls
cannot stand in intrinsic relations to each other.
Brains are made up of a pair of hemispheres, but souls are simple and indivisible, so brains
cannot contain souls. correct answers Brains cannot stand in non-physical relations, and souls
cannot stand in physical relations, so brains and souls cannot stand in relations to each other.
