It's possible for someone to function perfectly well with only one, the plasticity of the remain hemisphere will compensate and take over the missing hemispheres functionality. Though as an adult you lose that plasticity and become hardwired.
I would see the brain as a filter for consciousness which fits well enough with what we physically observe. If someone has two separate brains it's possible for each brain to come to it's own differing opinions on say the subject of Gods existence. Depending on which brain you ask you may well get a different answer.

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
