Would our soul be the same one regardless of what sperm fertilized the egg?

I know this is an odd question,šŸ˜Š but when we people say that they are glad that they were the sperm to make it to the egg and not another, I wonder. Would our soul be any different if it HAD been another sperm to make it to the egg? Would we be ā€œusā€ no matter which sperm fertilized the egg? If you donā€™t know that fine. Iā€™ll just have to wait until I get to heaven to ask! šŸ˜‰
 
Hi,

The person is not a soul that has a body. The person is a body-soul. The body is as much us as the soul is. We were never a sperm. None of us exists until the sperm is united with an egg. We would be an entirely different person if the sperm or egg had united with another.

Fr. Vincent Serpa, O.P.,
