"I also think that the idea that the concept of the eternal soul is somehow diametrically opposed to evolution is well, dumb tbh."

I think it IS diametrically opposed unless you make a very specific leap of faith (which Christiansd do, in their millions).

If evolution is accepted then Man is merely an advanced form of amoeba, having developed through all the intervening stages. Yet if religion is also accepted then at some moment in that journey "God" interverned and imbued all subsequent humans (or pre-humans? or post amoeboids? Which?) with a soul. It works, and it unites evolution and religion, but you need to reeeeally want it to.
