262 | What Happens When We Die? part 2: Rise of Atheism

Published: May 18, 2022, 10 a.m.

b'Today\\u2019s episode concludes our discussion about what people believe when they don\'t believe. We ask and answer the question what we believe happens when we die, as well as polling our patreon supporters. Atheists categorically reject the existence of gods and the practice of obeying any sort of higher power. Abraham defends the idea that atheism and agnosticism are the same. Shane makes some beautifully elegant points about what it all means at the end of the day.
