I don't believe in dualism, the soul as a separate entity from the brain/body. There is too much evidence of peoples personalities being altered my changes in the brain (drug use, physical trauma, etc.) to seriously entertain the idea that who I am is in any way separate from the patterns on neurons in my noggin.
However, I do believe there may come a day in the future when the pattern of neurons that is me can be copied and transferred into some other medium, allowing a sort of life after death. In the mean time, I'm betting that when I die, my soul will cease to exist.
