We, of all beings, are an hybrid of flesh and soul, all others are either wholly flesh or wholly spirit. The beings of God's ultimate reality are wholly spirit, and the other beings of this one are wholly flesh. We have a presence in both spirit and body.
A body can live without a soul, and a soul can live without a body. They do. The soul's impact upon our flesh is, despite what many might say, very minimal. However these connected pieces are one of the things that makes us very unusual animals.
The plan of God to make a hybrid creature, that was to be made in his image, is perhaps one of the reasons why his then archangel decided to become his adversary. The very idea of it, if one is not used to it, is unsettling.
The purpose of humanity, in my opinion, is to be the bride if God. However, this is a very human thing to think. There is no simple answer. The universe is so incredibly complex that any kind of attempt to define it's meaning will be met with failure.
