First of all for something to be fact it must be true, and for something to be true it must have evidence. And there is no evidence to indicate that personhood is anything other than an outgrowth if the body's physical processes. In fact all the evidence goes the other way, that human consciousness is an outgrowth of the complex processes of the brain, viz there is no such thing as a human soul as it has nor ever had a purpose.
When you look at the world with evidence as your guide it is a lot different than the one you construct with your wishes.
