That's weird when you think about it.Actually, your brain cells do not get replaced. For the most part, they will stay for your entire lifetime unless killed.

As for the OP, I don't have much to add at the moment that hasn't already been said. My old church taught that animals don't have souls (maybe that doesn't apply to Islam or isn't universal even in Christianity), but in the event it does apply, then why can animals exhibit complex behaviors without a soul? And why do they have brains that function on the same principles as our own?
