Many religions tell us that the soul is infinite - unbounded. It can comprehend all time and space.
Most humans would agree that, as far as we're aware, we're extremely limited. I, at least, can't read and discuss an unrelated topic at the same time; I can't even remember the details of something that was in front of my eyes a few seconds ago. The idea of knowing everything seems laughable.
Hope would say a soul exists and at some point these limitations will fall away. Scepticism would say, if you're limited now - don't expect it to get any better. Objectivism would say that this is beyond the bounds of our knowledge, even more so because it is so limited.
