In this section you need to know about (AO1):

-Theories on the nature (what is a soul?) and existence (is there a soul?) of the soul and the body / soul relationship.

-Theories of personal identity and in what way it might sense for us to keep our 'self' after death (continued personal existence)

-The nature of near-death experiences and their value as evidence of survival beyond death.

Issues to consider (AO2):

Is the notion of personalpost mortem existence coherent?

:

Do Near Death Experiences provide reasonable grounds for belief in the afterlife?

Is the notion of soul coherent and are there reasonable grounds for belief in the existence of a soul?
