I have read many of Plato's arguments for the immortality of the soul and like you, have not been convinced. My perspective though is different from yours as I am a believer in Jesus. Yet even so I repudiate Plato's doctrine for the simple reason that it is not taught in the Scriptures. Rather, they teach a resurrection or raising of the dead to life again. You would not know this though as a perusal of most church/ministry doctrinal statements or sermons on the soul, death, and the afterlife are nearly identical to Plato's words. So much so that I think these preachers should be slapped with plagiarism charges. p.s. I was going to get an Amex card, but after reading your post, decided against it!
