83. Proofs of the Immortality of the Soul

Now, many phenomena in present-day spiritual life can give the impression that many people, even those who stand on the ground of the strictest science, have lost the old prejudice that only natural science is a true science. Strict researchers and serious thinkers are beginning to investigate the continuation of the soul's life after death. Societies have been founded for such research, which aims to transfer the question of immortality from the realm of faith to that of strict science. There are already enough people of insight today who no longer consider anyone who devotes themselves to a scientific examination of such questions to be backward.
