With Eternal Life, Do Things Still Matter?
from Re-Enchantment Hosted by Daniel Lev Shkolnik
Religious traditions often promise the immortality of the soul. More recently, technology has been promising the immortality of the mind. But some philosophers believe that immortality isn't all it's cracked up to be. Specifically, they argue that if nothing can be lost, then nothing really matters. They say it's our finitude—not our immortality—that makes life worth living. Mike Myers and Daniel Shkolnik delve into what immortality might be like and whether it's something worth wanting.
