Abstract

Seekers are people who dedicate their lives to seeking answers to questions about the meaning of life. Major subtypes include: spiritualists who seek answers through spiritual quests and introspection (not through organized religion); scientists who seek answers by applying science and logic; and of course, believers, who devote themselves to following an established organized religion.
