Is There an Afterlife?: and What Is the Purpose of This One, Really?

The majority of people around the world, regardless of their faith, believe in life after death in one form or another. For many, it’s simply an assumption, and perhaps little further thought is given to the details. This book reviews the various beliefs on the subject primarily those in Jewish and Christian traditions, but also touching on Buddhism, atheism and secular science.If man in particular, or even the universe generally, was created, there must have been a reason. A realistic, practical reason. It’s not just man who exists in the material world, but an entire universe. Understanding the purpose of man and the material world’s existence, goes a long way to answer the question about an afterlife and its purpose, or if there is one.
