I am very sensitive to these notions of technology and progress that permeate our modern world. I believe in a soul and I explore this belief through the philosophical texts to the greatest extent of my ability. While things may get better for us in a material sense, the rush of our science to assert itself over our lives has made many of us forget what truly matters in life and that is... living a virtuous life.

I know of no tangible evidence that we have souls.
Our brains are biological computers.
