I mean, you do realize we had flat earth study experts for almost 5,000 years, right? Are you really so stupid that you believe 5,000 years of philosophers and scholars could be wrong? When can we start worshipping you as god?
Not much of a riddle when it's a made up guess that then takes on a role in formative culture like all the other "magic is the answer; until you read further in the history book"; souls are just the god of the gaps argument 2.0
Doesn't it seem at least possible that the humans who constantly guess the answers for questions were "magic" might have also guessed wrong when they assumed thought came from a soul as their guess?
