text: Human beings are not souls e.g. spirits.  Humans are a 2/1 unit BODY and SOUL.  The Resurrection of Jesus would not mean a thing to most Christians if they were not promised a resurrection [body re-united with the soul] as well.
  
  If human rights, justice, health, etc. didn't mean anything, why did Christ spend so much of his ministry time healing the sick, or raising the dead, and giving us the Beatitudes or the "Golden Rule"?
  
  Secondly, the Church doesn't save souls.  Jesus did.  The Church just continues the mission of Christ.  But just preaching is not all that goes into the ministry.  Fr. Martin isn't leading anybody away.  YOUR understanding of the mission of Christ needs to expand.
