- W3199003889 abstract "Theories of the human person differ greatly in their ability to underwrite a metaphysics of resurrection. This paper compares and contrasts a number of such views in light of the Christian doctrine of resurrection. In a Christian framework, resurrection requires that the same person who exists on earth also exists in an afterlife, that a post-mortem person be embodied, and that the existence of a post-mortem person is brought about by a miracle. According to my view of persons (the constitution view), a human person is constituted by- but not identical to - a human organism. A person has a first-person perspective essentially, and an organism has interrelated biological functions essentially. I shall argue for the superiority the constitution view as a metaphysical basis for resurrection. 'But what, then, ami?', Descartes famously asked. Although many of us today reject Descartes's equally famous answer- 'I am an immaterial mind' - Descartes was right, I believe, to identify himself with a thinking thing, a thing who ' doubts, understands, affirms, denies, wills, refuses, and which also imagines and senses '-1 But neither an immaterial mind nor a material brain is the thing that thinks. The thing that thinks is the person. Just as your legs and feet are the limbs by means of which you walk, you the person - not your legs and feet - are the walker; so too the brain is the organ by means of which you think, but you the person - not your brain - are the thinker." @default.
