Anima

About the Book

In this book I provide my answers to the questions which mankind has asked since the beginning of time: Is there a God? Is there a heaven? Is there an after-life? Do we reincarnate? Do we have an eternal soul? What is a “soul”? After 75 years of life as a lawyer, professor, author, professional athlete, father, husband, brother and friend to many, I have had innumerable experiences, just as every other mature adult has. I have traveled extensively, seen much and done much. I think it is my duty, and responsibility, to share my thoughts on such matters. I know full-well that no one knows, for certain, what those answers are, and probably never will. Regardless, I think every man and woman must examine their lives, and be ready to answer such questions if there is, in fact, a “God” to whom we must provide such answers. As Socrates said many centuries ago, an unexamined life is not worth leading. It is one thing to think about such things, and then to say them out loud, and quite another to put them down on paper for others to read and criticize. I am not trying to convince others that I am right and they are wrong. Again, as Socrates was reportedly quite fond of saying, I know nothing. I have examined my life and these are the conclusions I have reached.
