There are too many assumptions involved in your last post.  First of all, that there is a soul.  Now, you talk about the "taste" of the soul, which I don't think really means anything.

If by soul you mean "what it's like to be me," then it's pretty obvious who defines it-- nobody.  It is an expression of the DNA, the brain, and the environment.

What I meant by soul was not an ethereal thing but it was just to clarify the identity rather then the physical brain.

Can you elaborate on the point you made, because DNA and brain and environment, cannot give value, as they are physical objects....so elaborate on it and also refer back to what everyone has agreed upon, mainly value is not inherent, but something perceived and given, mainly through love.
