The word "soul" refers not only to the immaterial part of man but the also material part. Unlike man having a "spirit," man is a soul. In its most basic sense the word "soul" means "life." However, the Bible moves beyond "life" and into many areas. One of those areas is to man's eagerness to sin (Luke 12:26). Man is naturally evil and his soul is tainted as a result. The life principle is removed at the time of physical death (Genesis 35:18; Jeremiah 15:2). The "soul" as with the "spirit," is the center of many spiritual and emotional experiences (Job 30:25; Psalm 43:5; Jeremiah 13:17). Whenever the word "soul" is used, it can refer to the whole person, alive or after death.

The size of human soul differs from person to person. Generally it is limited by one's ego. But those who can get over their own needs and wants enhance their soul to an infinite size. Such souls are abundant in Love for People

The movie 21 GRAMS mentions that someone put a dying man on a large scale and carefully measured the weight of a body as it died. This guy noticed a discrepancy of 21 grams once the person actually died.
However, this "experiment" was done decades ago and he used the American system of measurement and what he actually came up with was 3/4 of an ounce. He also didn't take into account that humans lose control of their sphincter when they are dead so he probably only measured an escaping fart...there's your "soul" for you!

A soul? A soul is a tool of sorts invented by men.
Assure a man that he has a soul and then frighten him with old wives' tales as to what is to become of him afterward, and you have hooked a fish, a mental slave.

If a human is on the outside looking in, it is viewed as the atom within the atom. A hidden treasure within, that is unseen, and undetectable by man.
If a human is on the inside looking out, it is all encompassing, that which lies beyond time and space. It has a beauty that is beyond compare.
It is a beautiful "ray of light" that is but a tiny fragment of that power from which it came.

Souls are in a quantum superstate and therefor have no dimensions until God measures them and the wave collapses.

They're all exactly the same size because GOD is sum-what of a perfectionist like that.

Never thought of this. If there such a thing, it must exist in other dimensions, so we cannot calculate its size.

How can a non-existent thing have a size at all?
