I filmed this a while back & didn't publish it because I try to stay away from "religion & politics" but thought with the state of the world people may need some support & faith that they have the time to consider it over Easter.

I think the best argument of having faith/religion/spirituality as I mentioned is looking at it like a practical business decision of having insurance: if you buy a house or car, of course, you get insurance for it, right?

Then why wouldn't you protect your most valuable asset, your soul, with insurance?

Even if there is any small chance that there is a heaven or hell, wouldn't you want protection to cover you to make sure you spend eternity in the good place, not the bad one?

Anyway, I am not trying to preach which religion is best, I've been to multiple meditation silent retreats in Buddhist temples in Asia, I did Birthright Jewish trips to Israel, have attended mass at the Vatican in Rome.

For me, after attending services at Anglican, Protestant & even Evengelical, the Roman Catholic Church is where I am @ each Sunday as it is the right fit for me, BUT you have the right to believe in any, or none.

*And it's all good*

I'm not here trying to convert anyone, and Lord knows I am soooo far from perfect, just sharing my perspective during this Holy Week and creating a conversation about the reality of death that is more real now that it ever has been due to this pandemic that many people have lost family / friends too.

& I may lose some podcast YT subscribers that don't agree, but that is also all good.

But if you do agree, feel free to share this episode with a friend.

Happy Easter :)
