Being Mortal

  Being Mortal examines the sense of mortality shared by all humans and explores the questions we have about death. What is a meaningful life? Is it possible that there are alternate forms of existence or reality? And the biggest question, what we all want to know, when we’re dead is it all over? When we’re dead are we simply gone forever, or is there something else? And will emerging technology help answer any of these questions, or perhaps even change the answers?      We're on YouTube!

LA SANTA MUERTA

LA SANTA MUERTA

The female grim reaper.

The dark skeleton saint.

She proudly sits on her throne

with a crown tilted on her bony head.

She loves her sacrifices.

Sacrifices of humans—any humans.

She will avenge your enemies

and reward you with great wealth.

Be evil and prosper.

THE EVIL INSIDE

What lies inside a person?

Is there a soul?

A soul devoted to good or evil?

That is the question we should be asking

when we first meet someone.

Nothing can mask an evil being.
