Immortality for the mind and the moral life
A clear, accessible case for life after death and its impact on how we live today. This work argues that the soul’s eternity is not just a religious claim, but a force that shapes reason, ethics, and society.
The author surveys competing views—Pantheism and Materialism—and explains why personal immortality matters. He lays out natural, rational grounds for believing in a future life and shows how this belief elevates our moral purpose, duties, and personal responsibility. The text also connects doctrine to practice, tracing how faith in immortality informs baptism, the Eucharist, and the Christian approach to dying, suffering, and remembrance.Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the philosophical debate over the soul's existence and potential immortality, with the author providing a detailed argument in favor of the existence of a human soul separate from, and capable of surviving, the physical body. The author begins by refuting the arguments of materialism, then proceeds to establish the need for a rational principle, such as the soul, to explain the unity, indivisibility, and autonomy of self-consciousness. The author posits that the brain is not the source of our thoughts, but rather an instrument that mediates between the soul and the physical world. The author further argues that the desire for happiness, the demands of morality, and the universality of our belief in an afterlife, all lend support to the idea of an immortal soul. The author concludes by highlighting the book's core message: that human beings are not merely physical creatures, but beings endowed with an immaterial, immortal soul, which is the source of our higher mental faculties and our capacity for a transcendent existence.
