    By Function I meant "everything it does", not "purpose"

    I mean what does it "have" that is NOT stored in the brain?
    because my main point is, as your brain deteriorates, who you are deteriorates along with it.

    The concept of the human soul is, as with many other mythical concepts, a man-made-dreamt-up concept to coax others into conformance but classifying at something unique and cherishable to humans alone.

    Because Humans don't have souls, either.

    If anybody can tell me how much of "you" is contained in a soul, I can try to argue against it. so far, none of you have told me what it is or what it does.

    If it's otherwise, I'm open to this being demonstrated to me.

    Well, this is a self-awareness test, relevant to those who believe soul = self-awareness.
