Life after Death
Description
Religion has influenced expectations about death for thousands of years. But as society becomes increasingly secular, what can take God's place as a source of comfort at life's end? In this program biologist and atheist Richard Dawkins argues that science may be able to provide a better view of "life everlasting" than does religion - especially through genetic inheritance.
