One should never begin a response with an Ad Hominin insult.

Everything you point out is quite true, and I agree with you, but that is not the context of the argument. We are talking about the physical remains of real people in a real lake of fire.

Aside from his soul and spirit, the Bible text says that some physical part of the man will physically reside in the physical lake of fire. And that a physical body (or parts, there of) will not be consummed by the flames. And if people will be able to look upon them there in that lake, then there has to be something physical there, other than his spirit and soul. That is the way the passage reads. I merely pointed out an interesting coincidental fact about human anatomy.
