And saw the sons of G-d the daughters of man were good and took of them wives from all that they chose. Genesis 6:2

How can these souls be detected, where in the body are they located, what tests can identify if a person has a soul or not?
Or is it all made up crap?

Santa is a marketing ploy just over a century old, stemming from the myth of St Nick.

It might be better to just let go of bullshit.

How much time do you spend debating Apollo or Thor or Isis?

Lig dó freastal ar na daoine breoite, Lig dó leas a bhaint as an láidre, Lig dó fírinne a bheith aige Lig dó smaoineamh bréagach,  Lig grá dó righteousness, Lig dó buille síos eagla, Lig dó coirpigh a chosc, Lig dó breithiúnais fhíor a thabhairt dó, Lig dó gach eolaíocht,  Lig dó gach síocháin a chomhdhlúthú.

Let him attend to the sick,
Let him benefit the poor,
Let him possess truth
Let him chide falsehood,
 Let him love righteousness,
Let him beat down fear,
Let him crush criminals,
Let him give true judgments,
Let him foster every science,
Let him consolidate every peace. - The Book Of Leinster,  'On The Virtues Of A King', 35-40

And that is relevant to those who have had the divine spark breathed into them by G-d passing on the divine spark to their descendants how?

gods spark, is that what they're calling it now?

More literally it would be 'the breath of G-d'.  This discussion interested me because it appears that the Catholics reconciled their beliefs with evolution by lifting from the Jewish tradition. Long, long before Charles Darwin came along, the Sages of the Talmud discussed the generations before Adam. Adam was the first man to have the Breath of G-d breathed into him.

Were the generations before adam non humans and did they also have the non breath peoples die off?

Easy.  Anyone who isn't ginger has a soul.  Sorry redheads, FSM was just, well he was distracted when handing them out.
