Sorry, but simply saying no doesn’t make it so. Entanglement directly contradicts the laws of general relativity when it comes to time and space, so either general relativity (and with that, everything we know about time and space) goes out the window, or there is more than just time and space. You can’t have it both ways.
Those aren’t the only choices, and those are made up by people. The world doesnt change just because humans have obscure thoughts or fantastical explanations for things. Nothing is new now compared to a thousand years ago, and people didnt have souls back then either.
Of course choices are made up by people. Science is made up by people. But if you use science to convince yourself that we have no soul, you better make sure there are no gaps in your reasoning. So long as science’s own experiments contradict each other with regards to the nature of our reality, I’m not going along with such denialism.

It’s weird that you don’t extend this formula to your position, and very outwardly advocating for an existance of inobservable substance solely on reasoning of “it’s dimensions or quantum or whatever”
Well, yeah, I’m not the one claiming to have all the answers. I merely am a witness of my consciousness, so I know that’s a real thing. I describe that whole of consciousness and awareness and “me-ness” as my soul, but I have no hard definition for it, I merely know there’s something there.
Science however is a man-made construct and can only operate on the observable and the independently verifiable. I’m not saying that to diminish its worth, because science is mighty cool, but I simply refuse to take it to the extreme position that anything that cannot be scientifically proven should be assumed not to exist.
I’ve experienced enough weird shit in my life that makes no scientific sense. They still happened though. So rather than denying these things, the sane thing to do is to shrug them off as “it’s dimensions or quantum or whatever” :)
We dont know any of that, this is more sales pitch than science.

That’s not enough reason to behave as if souls are real, unfortunately.
