Likewise, a few google searches like <a href="http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=DVXA,DVXA:2005-20,DVXA:en&q=how+does+the+brain+work">this one</a> might be helpful in developing your scientific knowledge. I was more inclined to believe in a soul until I studied the abudance of science we have on one of the greatest human mysteries: our brains. There are conclusive studies about neurotransmitters and their overriding effects on our moods and personalities. Minutes after birth, I believe we are all very different; we have different serotonin to dopamine ratios.. we have more active brain areas.. and therefore we consequently react differently to identical stimuli: not becuase of a soul, but yes.. because of chemicals.
