We are divine and eternal souls. Bodies are probably made of stardust.

There was an Infinite Monkey Cage a little while ago about this which is worth listening to. Apparently it's about six particles of cosmic dust per square metre per year. There are probably quite a few on your roof right now.

Every element heavier than helium was manufactured in a star. There's no "probable" about it. We are made of stardust.

I'm ignoring your first sentence because this is the science board. Please don't post anything else about eternal souls because I'll report it as being off topic.
