You had me intrigued. Jeff and I are now on episode 10 -- thanks to you! Only 111 more to go!
I need to say, though, that your description of those who subscribe to a theory of Apocalypse seems apropos, as such a theory, laden with theological ideology, completely lacks imagination: "...a bad story told by a people who can only envision their lives as a conveyor belt which will, with industrial efficiency, dump them into the bin of hell of the bin of heaven." I might add to that: or the bin of Soylent Green.
...with glasses of wine in hand! You and Clark are welcome to come visit anytime and stay for several days!
And I just thought of another series that also played with the idea of the long story of the soul/multiple timelines of lives/past lives. It was called "Outlander" and once again at the core of the plot was a beautiful love story. Yes, confession: we eagerly watched the whole series because ...well, despite the violence of the history of warring factions among the Scottish clans and between the clans and the British empire, there was this beautiful love story (and steamy sex scenes!)

Oh I wish you and Jeff were around the corner and we could have long conversation about it under the stars together!
