Where does Scripture say that? And how is it in the originaL? By
checking
out texts in the original I found that some words are translated
differently depending on the "philosophical insights" of the
translators. I checked out Gen. 1 and Gen. 2 in several
translations. When in Gen. 1 about animals translated as "living
beings"
and in Gen. 2 about man it was translated as "soul", clearly indicating
that what we read is not only the original but depends also on the
philosophy (outlook on life) of the translators.
