See, I still believe in souls existing prior to the formation of animal bodies although I see the "investment" as being the soul which has been prior existent choosing a pathway of vessels and incarnation for experience upon any planetary sphere. I see the soul as being that which is the continuous mind of the individuated Creator whereas the forms of the body are continuously changing as a vehicle.
The reason I believe that the soul is developed prior to the actual experience in the body because I see souls as the blueprints for all of manifestation, so the bodies had no need to exist until the souls had developed sufficient desire to experience a physical body which is, to my understanding, an outward manifestation of the soul. Perhaps our difference is that I see the soul world as being something which is foundation to the physical world rather than the other way around. To me, the physical experience is the "excrement" or very last aspect of manifestation to come in to appearance and experience. In my experience and conception I have always perceived a vast "non-physical" state of existence needing to exist as the foundation to the physical reality which is an interface between the apparently non-physical entities that are souls.
In short, I think physical bodies could not exist at all and there would still be souls.
For me, I see it that souls are able to perceive time as a spectrum rather than a point like we do. Therefore, in each soul plan, I see it that all of the creation and evolution of animal bodies has been at the orchestration of many individuated souls whom is each adding its own part to the overall Logos design. I see it that those souls created animal bodies and reincarnated continuously because they were aware of what they are/were intending to evolve in to and so there were no coincidences in regards to the intelligent energy that has flowed through each creature and being.
So that being said, I agree with the idea of animals being invested in to produce the evolution of self-awareness, however I see it as being the soul which does this investment and it is not something which just "appears" as a result of an animal spontaneously receiving energy for no reason.
I admit, I would almost interchange the words soul and Logos as they describe almost the same thing to me.
