In this episode, we will discuss the idea of “the soul” and how it relates to the afterlife. Is there evidence for the existence of the soul? If the soul doesn’t exist, then what does this mean for the idea of the “afterlife”. Follow this thread further to make the point that basing one’s life on the potential eternality of our existence after death is flawed and how and why to make the most of this life, if it’s truly the only one we have.
