Life After Death

• Thesis Text:
  1. Here we must discuss possible ways in which post-mortem² survival³ might be actualised, namely:-
     1. Resurrection⁴,
     2. Reincarnation⁵, or
     3. Immortality⁶ of the Soul⁷.
  2. To this list might be added the collection of hopeful possibilities expected by the Transhumanists⁸.
  3. We will discuss here broad issues rather than the specifics of the particular options.
  4. We need to discuss whether life⁹ after death¹⁰ – in the sense of eternal, or at least unending, life – is to be desired, though this can mostly be hived off to the Makropulos Case¹¹.
  5. I’m not interested in cases of resuscitation, which are commonplace these days. The paradigm cases I’m interested in are after the total – or near-total – destruction of the body¹².
  6. Resuscitation is probably best dealt with under the head of Near Death Experiences¹³, but see
     1. "Moody (Raymond A.) - Life After Life", and
     2. "Moody (Raymond A.) - The Light Beyond".
        
  7. Mark Johnston thinks (in "Johnston (Mark) - Surviving Death") that there’s a forensic¹⁴ need for post-mortem survival¹⁵ of some sort, as otherwise there’s no incentive to be good, and hopes to provide it by a radical redefinition of what the person¹⁶ is. But this strikes me as changing the subject.
  8. "Martin (L. Michael) & Augustine (Keith) - The Myth of an Afterlife: The Case against Life After Death" is a comprehensive sceptical attack on the possibility of post mortem survival.

In-Page Footnotes:

Footnote 25:

• The categorised reading list includes a lot of material of purely religious interest, the vast bulk of which I’ve ignored
• Even so, the reading list is too long.

Footnote 26:

• Unlikely to have anything to do with resurrection, but I want an excuse for reading the book!
• Maybe belongs to Chapter 8.

Footnote 27:

• I’ve not noted individual papers from this volume, except where I’ve read them.
