Course Description
Throughout history, the vast majority of people around the globe have believed they have, however defined, a “soul.” While the question of whether the soul exists cannot be answered by science, what we can study are the causes and consequences of various beliefs about the soul and its prospects of surviving the death of the body. This course explores several facets of this relatively unexplored but profoundly important aspect of human thought and behavior.
