IS there any reason to think humans have a soul? [Spirituality & Religion]

I mean besides a religion telling you there is one.
What about humans indicates there is something more than in other animals? Something that exists beyond the physical body?

Dr. MacDougall concluded that a human soul weighed 21 grams. He did experiments weighing people right before and at the moment of death.

@curiosi

And i assume you are aware of how brutally is experiments were debunked?

@UnparalleledMonster: Look into the eyes of a sociopath/psychopath, it's obvious they have no soul.

@curiosi:

Yeah...that's not as convincing as you might think.
I've never looked into anyone's eyes and thought "oh yeah, they deffs have a soul". Or vice versa.
Certainly you might recognize a lack of empathy or interpersonal engagement. Not sure what that has to do with the presence of a soul.
Do you have a more compelling argument?
