Do we as Humans have a soul? [Spirituality & Religion]

I am a Christian but still question if we have a soul, there are lots of Christians out there, and prayed for my mom out loud when the neighbors over-heard me they said out loud "We don't want you there", "you are not a Christian". Anyways I know my rights I can do what I want in my house including my body, If say I would have an outer body experience and saw God and be alive to tell the tale I would truly believe we had a soul, but other people might also ask the same thing so doesn't that cancel out humans having a soul if many would believe we don't have souls?

I mean expiernacing something Holy but looking around there are people who didn't even had holy experience before wouldn't that make my debate false? Luckily there are lots of Christians out there about 2 million so it means we have a soul right:?

There is no such thing as a soul in my opinion.

“Virtually all contemporary scientists and philosophers expert on the subject agree that the mind, which comprises consciousness and rational process, is the brain at work. They have rejected the mind-brain dualism of René Descartes, who in Meditationes (1642) concluded that 'by the divine power the mind can exist without the body and the body without the mind.”

Our brainstem controls the impulses that are sent to our body. Our muscles, glands, hormone secretions, skin sensitivity, organ action, heart rate and thousands of other actions are all controlled by our nervous system, which is managed by our brains. So, if we damage a part of our brain we can impair our ability to control our bodies. If we damage our medulla, our physical co-ordination can be lost, if we damage our frontal lobes, our personality can be changed. This is because the brain controls the body and emotions. The cause and effect is clear: physical damage to the brain damages our soul.
