At what point did we become human and it was wrong to kill each other?

When did human beings evolve a soul?

When we learned to laugh at ourselves. Some still haven't gotten there.

It's relevant. I want to know how evolution accounts for the soul.

You can't prove there is a such thing as a soul, so you've got your own problems to solve.

When someone has a conscience (read: cares for others besides himself) he also has a soul.
People without a conscience = people who only care about themselves = soulless people.

What soul? The mythological "soul" doesn't exist. When a person dies, there's no life force or consciousness that continues on, you're just dead. Therefore, your "soul" never evolved and never existed.
