Epicurus:
Death is nothing to us, since when we are, death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.

William James
James said that the brain might be the vehicle for the transmission of a consciousness that originates elsewhere, and that if this is true, then the deathof my body and its brain is not the death of that stream of consciousness, which may well continue in that elsewhere.

A Response to "On Bodily Death, a Person Continues to Exist in a Non-physical Form."

I somewhat agree with this statement. I feel that a person no longer exists after death, but they are remembered through others’ memories. When a person dies they are cremated or buried and hidden from the living. They no longer exist because they do not interact with the people around them. There is no spirit that lingers around after they die that interacts with living people. They do not travel to Heaven or Hell; they do not travel to the afterlife. When a person dies they are gone. However, just because they are gone does not mean that they are forgotten, the memories they left their peers to hold on to, in a sense help them continue to exist. I do not believe that a person physically exists after death, but they can continue to exist in the memories of other people.
