Dear Myspacers,
We can't give you the anatomy of a soul for exactly the same reason we can't give you blueprints to Santa's house, factory or sleigh, or the tooth fairy's minting press!
"how does logic explain why you should be a good person?"
"or tell me why oppsite charges attract. or why a proton and electron will be drawn to each other?"
You FAIL... at grammar.
You FAIL... at spelling.
You FAIL... at physics.
You FAIL... at logic.
Well, yeah, science can't explain everything right now. But scientists know a whole hell of a lot more than they did a hundred years ago, and in another hundred years they'll know even more. The fact that science can't explain everything at this very moment doesn't make it any less valid.

Alright. Show me a better way of approaching reality.
why the hell can't a scientist give me the anatimy of a soul?
Because there is no soul.or tell me why oppsite charges attract. or why a proton and electron will be drawn to each other?
I don't know, it just is.
and you can awnser that, then why is that the awnser?
What?
how does logic explain why you should be a good person?
It doesn't. Apart from that, morality sometimes has something to do with... how do you call it... oh, empathy.

What?
Logic can tell why one should be a good person. Lets say you find the idea of you friends and family being murdered appalling. Therefore, It makes sense that you don't murder anyone yourself. Same goes for being stolen from and lied to, etc.
Science did procure a funny little "gadget" called Spell-checker. You should get one, really; it would make your texts at least look like they're worth taking seriously.
When you are a good person, other people will like you, and you will feel good inside. The good things you do will benefit other people and they will also feel good inside.
I didn't have faith in either Santa or the Easter Bunny when I was four. For one, we don't have the Easter Bunny in Sweden, not like that. Furthermore; my parents didn't want us to believe fairy tales are real, so they made sure we knew it was just dad in that Santa mask, and that it was all great fun. The few years we had a Santa at all, that is.
Do you mean "sole reason"? Which is the thing, by the way? Freya? Gaia? Minerva? Kali? Or perhaps solidarity? Love? Tolerance and respect?
Bercause a 4 year old is a 4 year old, but religious dolts came in all ages. Furthermore, it would be no more possible to explain the anatomy of a soul than of a pink unicorn's testicles. Both are equally non-existent.
BTW, isn't Garfield's long-suffering owner named Jon?
So you admit that to be a believer you need to never grow up?
BINGO!! Give the lad a lollipop. (And some English lessons.)
(Uh oh, I see I've already commented on this. Never mind, it's worthy of two responses.)
"why the hell can't a scientist give me the anatimy of a soul? or tell me why oppsite charges attract."
Well, your horrible spelling skills are a pretty obvious one.
Science isn't trying to "prove" everything. Scientific proof is so strong, nothing has ever been scientifically proven. Which is why they speak of theories instead; complex systems of evidence-based explanations for natural phenomenons.
If you want the "anatimy" of a soul, then get a degree and start working on it, as you're the one wanting it. Or, at least fund a science lab so they can find it for you. Science isn't free, or even cheap, silly.
Four-year-olds have more imagination than reason, so they believe in silly things, like Santa, the Easter bunny and souls. When they grow up, they want evidence, logic and reason.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
