Episode 1 "Beyond Death"

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì                                                                                                                                                 

Beyond Death examines various religion’s thinking and belief systems about death. Host Morgan Freeman travels to the lands that represent the religion, interviews persons involved with the religion about the subject of death, and then he adds his thinking about death. Mr. Freeman makes a terrific host for this subject, performs a thorough overview, and establishes definable bridges of common ground between the religions examined.

Episode 5 "Why Does Evil Exist?"

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì 

Why Does Evil Exist? Because definitions of evil vary widely, this subject becomes a bit more complicated to investigate. This difficult question is not handled as comprehensively as previous topics within Season 1 and this episode is, therefore, not as informative, or instructive. 

Storyline 

This episode deals with the question of why there is evil in the world. 

Additional Thanks

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe? 

Yes. It works with a consistent level of quality equal to previous episodes, but does not comprehensively cover this question well.
