So transcending death, that human beings basically look for purpose because death is inevitable and if we can find purpose, then we can give our life meaning.

Atheist vs Christian vs Spiritualist: The Paperclip Problem That Exposes Religion!

But if death โ€“ if we die and I don't leave something behind, can you talk a little bit about that?

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Atheist vs Christian vs Spiritualist: The Paperclip Problem That Exposes Religion!

I agree with so much of what you all say and I also like hard disagree with some of the fundamentals.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Atheist vs Christian vs Spiritualist: The Paperclip Problem That Exposes Religion!

If you tell someone, you know, you're writing this book.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Atheist vs Christian vs Spiritualist: The Paperclip Problem That Exposes Religion!

Let's say you write it and then you die because we'll simplify the example.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Atheist vs Christian vs Spiritualist: The Paperclip Problem That Exposes Religion!

And then 30 days later, the world ends.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Atheist vs Christian vs Spiritualist: The Paperclip Problem That Exposes Religion!

Let's take two people, one who says, I'm all right at any way, and one who says, there's no point.
