-Study of human body (hell even the study of the mind psychology) is the study of a living organism and thus biology.

- Going off the dictionary definition Psychology is the scientific study of the brain and its functions. -There is 1 ignorant fact common across many of these points: You assume Souls are related to the body, like any tissue, muscle, or organ. You focus only on the biological...but not on the psychological. On the subconscious. On the mind.

It is not a matter of it's relation to the body. It's a matter of it's relation to the mind, the one thing that gives us our identity, our ideas, our consciousness, our very selves.

-Now that's foolish, dumb semantics. Psychology is not Biology. Laconically, yes, it's "study of living organisms", but technically, it's different from Psychology, because Biology studies the body and it's functions, Psychology focuses on the mind and it's processes. And by mind, I don't just mean Brain.

-Dictionaries only offer the most basic, simplistic explanation for concepts. Psychology is not the study of the brain, it's the study of the MIND, along with behaviour, embracing all aspects of conscious and unconscious experience as well as thought. It's not just studying that sensitive, squishy thing in our heads, it goes beyond that. Which is why Psychology is not Biology.

Biology studies the brain and what it does, biologically. Psychology goes deeper. Biology studies how the brain works and manages the body. Psychology studies how the different personalities, behaviours, and different aspects of ourselves, are born from the mind. Not the same.
