The soul (as I remember it from my time spent in the Catholic Church) is broadly comparable to the mind as a Buddhist might see it.
As a soul is tainted by our; thoughts, deeds and actions (sins) so our minds can be polluted by the three 'poisons of; desire, hate and ignorance. Our mind/soul is the receptacle of these sins/poisons and not actually permanently changed by them. The sins/pollutions are created by our choices.
Where Buddhism differs is in this respect is the relationship between a creator God and a mind or soul.
