Suppose that men do indeed have souls.
Suppose then that a man dies and his soul goes to heaven.
The fact that a part of the man went to heaven does not mean that the man went to heaven. The soul is less than the whole of the man.
Either our bodies are like vehicles that we are driving, and therefore nothing physical makes up a part of us. Or, so far as we are concerned, dead is truly dead, even if we do have an immortal soul, since the configuration of parts that made us up is still dissolved.
