The Mind-Body Problem is still a Problem
The idea that consciousness may not need a physical body. Why should it? Just because that’s the only type we have found so far.

I feel for religious folks who will never get to ponder some of the more profound questions in life. Having all the answers in one place, on a plate is such a curse. Life is such a mystery, not a plan.
Ask yourself if you are a Dualist (see the video in the article I have linked to) and in the process, you will have just proved there is more to it, than materialism and Phenomenalism. It takes two baby!
There may be a major reason why we have never come across a consciousness without a body to reside in. And that may be, because mind is just a useful adaption that benefited many lifeforms during their evolution. Jury is still out though.
