RUSSIAN HUMANISM ON THE MOVE Seventy years of state-sponsored anticlericalism did not eliminate the need for open- minded consideration of the fundamental questions of humanist philosophy. The Russian Humanist Society, founded in 1991, organised its first International Conference at Moscow University on 2-4 October 1997. entitled Science and Commonsense in Reforming Russia. Accommodated in the gigantic, 50 year old edifice of Moscow State University were humanists from Germany. Slovakia, Poland, Holland, Norway, Britain and the United States, besides the majority . contingent from Russia itself. Sessions were addressed by humanists from the above countries. One of the main topics of discussion was the rather large incidence of believers in the paranormal and religion in Russia today. A bevy of students from the School of Journalism attached to the University acted as translators. These journalist students were by no means all ultra-rationalists themselves, many believing in telepathy, precognition, and UF0s. Nevertheless, they were extremely interested in debating these questions and were prepared to change their minds. Guests were made very welcome by their hosts. Useful contacts between the participants resulted and we look forward to exchanges of journals and further visits should ensue. CAN WE SURVIVE OUR OWN DEATHS?

Roberts. Cosette Pretty Cosette Pretty (whose death was reported in the Sept. ER), a member of the Society for quite a long time, died in July. She will be remembered by old members for her participation in many of the Society's activities, including rambling both in the countryside and on city walks, as well as thc warmth she showed everytime she met her many long time friends at Conway Hall. Forever lively and active in many directions, Cosette eventually 'retired' to Robert Morton House in 1986, while only marginally slowing down and losing none of the enthusiasm for living. She was a much loved mother and grandmother and a very memorable personality to all who knew her. L.L.B.

The views expressed in this journal are not necessarily those of the Society. 2 Ethical Record, October 1997 CAN WE SURVIVE OUR OWN DEATHS? Professor Antony Flew Based on a Lecture to the Ethical Society 20 July 1997 Whether we are to live in a future state, as it is the most important question which can possibly be asked, so it is the most intelligible one which can be expressed in language. Yet strange perplexities have been raised about the meaning of that identity or sameness of person, which is implied in thc notion of our living now and hereafter, or in any two successive moments. Joseph Butler ( I 692-1752)' It is because the idea of a life after mortal death, and above all the threat of an eternal life in torment, appears so immediately intelligible, and so overwhelmingly formidable, that Butler and so many others have not bcen and are not greatly distressed by the indefeasibility in this life of "the religious hypothesis." For they could be confident that in that infinite future all would be made plain. The solution to the Problem of Evil would be revealed, wrongs would all be righted, and thc divine justice vindicated. The promise of such eschatological verification is, of course, paradoxical. Unbelievers are eventually to learn the grim truth, but only when it will be too late for prudent, saving action. To our protests that we never knew, and could not have known, the response will be that made to a parallel protest by an old-time Scots Judge: "Well, ye ken noo!" If however it is the believers who are mistaken, then they will never be embarrassed by a posthumous awareness of their error, any more than we can expect to enjoy the satisfaction of saying to them, "We told you so!" For, as the Epicureans used to urge, it will be for us mortals after death as it was before we were born: If it is going to be wretched and miserable for anyone in the future, then he to whom the bad things may happen has also got to exist at that time. Since death prevents that possibility..., we can know that there is nothing to be feared after death, that hc who does not exist cannot be miserable. It makes not a jot of difference.... when immortal death has taken away his mortal life.' Setting the Problem: The Great Obstacle Surely Butler was right. "Whether we arc to live in a future state, as it is the most important question which can possibly be asked, so it is thc most intelligible one which can be expressed in language." Surely we can understand the fears of those warned of thc fate of the damned and thc hopes of warriors of Allah expecting if thcy die in Holy Wars to go straight to the arms of the black-eyed houris in Paradise. Of course wc can: they both expect - and what could be more intelligible than this? - that, if they do certain things, then they will in consequence enjoy or suffer certain rewards or punishments. And, if this future life is supposed to last forever, then clearly the question of whether or not we shall have it (and, if so, the consequent problem of ensuring that we shall pass it agreeably) is of quite overwhelming existential importance. For what are three-score years and ten compared with all eternity? Now wait a minute. the sceptic protests. Surely something crucial is being overlooked. For this future life is supposed to continue even after physical Ethical Record, Octobet; 1997 3 dissolution, even after the slow corruption in thc cemetery or the swift consumption in the crematorium. Of course we can understand the myth of Er' or stories of Valhalla. But to expect that after my death and dissolution such things might happen to me is to overlook that I shall not then exist. To expect such things, through overlooking this, is surely like accepting a fairy tale as history, through ignoring the prefatory rubric: "Once upon a time, in a world that never was ..." That first exchange gets us to the heart of the matter, by establishing two fundamentals. One of these is that the essence of any doctrine of personal survival (or personal immortality) must be that it should assert that we ourselves shall in some fashion do things and suffer things after our own deaths (forever). It is this, and this alone, that warrants, or rather constitutes, what John Wisdom so correctly characterised as "the logically unique expectation."' It is important to emphasise that this is indeed of the essence: both because some doctrines employing the word immortality have from the beginning not been of this kind - Aristotle on the alleged immortality of the intellect, for instance - and because others, which started as genuine doctrines of personal immortality, have been so interpreted and reinterpreted that they have surreptitiously ceased to be anything of the such. (These latter have thus suffered "the death by a thousand qualifications."5) It is also, it seems, sometimes necessary to point out that personal survival is presupposed by, and is no sort of alternative to, personal immortality.' For, as was famously said with regard to another remarkable claim to survival: "It is the first step which counts." The second fundamental is this. Any doctrine of personal survival or personal immortality has got to find some way around or over an enormous initial obstacle. In the ordinary, everyday understandings of the words involved, to say that someone survived death is to contradict yourself, while to assert that we all of us live forever is to assert a manifest falsehood, the flat contrary of a universally known universal truth: namely, the truth, hallowed in the traditional formal logic, that "All men are mortal." Possible Routes Around or Over That Obstacle We may distinguish three sorts of ways in which we might attempt to circumvent or to overcome this formidable barrier, although the route-finding image becomes awkward when we notice that most living faiths have incorporated elements of more than one.

  • Out-Of-Body Experience: Review & a Case Study
    Journal of Consciousness Exploration & Research| October 2017 | Volume 8 | Issue 9 | pp. 686-708 686 Sellers, J., Out-of-Body Experience: Review & a Case Study Article Out-of-Body Experience: Review & a Case Study Julia Sellers* ABSTRACT Out-of-body experiences in people with pathological conditions such as epilepsy have been studied by a fair amount of researchers to date. However, there is a severe lack of studies aimed at researching out-of-body experiences occurring in the non-pathological population. In article, I provide a review of the relevant literature and present a case of anomalous perception, in the form of autoscopic phenomena, of a healthy individual who reports experiencing massive out-of- body experiences, spontaneously or at will, on a daily basis, since birth. Keywords: out-of-body experience, altered consciousness, autoscopic phenomena, waking state, near death experience. Introduction People report experiencing out-of-body experiences (OBEs) as part of near-death-experiences (NDEs), or induced by hypnosis/trance/meditation techniques/contemplation and praying, epilepsy, cardiac arrests, brain injuries, life threatening situations such as resuscitation or a sudden shock, activities such as extreme exercising, or elicited by out-of-body-like experiences such as body parts distortions created under a virtual reality setting (Moody, 1975; Blanke, Landis, Ortigue, & Seeck, 2002; Fenwick & Parnia, 2002; Braithwaite, 2008; Blanke, Heydrich, Lopez, & Seeck, 2011; Craffert, 2015). OBEs associated with cases of migraines, drug use, and anesthesia have been reported as well (Podoll & Robinson, 1999; Blanke & Bunning, 2005; Annoni, Forster, Habre, Iselin-Chaves, & Lopez, 2006). The present case study aims to describe the out-of-body experiences of a white Caucasian male who reports experiencing out-of-body-accounts in the waking/active state, under full consciousness, occurring both spontaneously and at will.

  • BENEATH the SHADOW of the RED ROCK: a NOVEL with a CRITICAL INTRODUCTION and an AFTERWORD a Dissertation by CATHERINE ANGELA
    BENEATH THE SHADOW OF THE RED ROCK: A NOVEL WITH A CRITICAL INTRODUCTION AND AN AFTERWORD A Dissertation by CATHERINE ANGELA BARTLETT Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Nandini Bhattacharya Co-Chair of Committee, Qwo-Li Driskill Committee Members, Robert J. Griffin Angela Pulley Hudson Cara Wallis Head of Department, Maura Ives August 2016 Major Subject: English Copyright 2016 Catherine Angela Bartlett ABSTRACT This scholarly-creative dissertation uses a decolonizing storytelling methodology to investigate the 1979 Church Rock uranium spill near Gallup, New Mexico, where an open-air uranium waste pond breached its earth dam, releasing over 1,000 tons of radioactive mill waste and 93 tons of tailings into the Río Puerco. Contaminants traveled over eighty miles downstream, poisoning ground water, livestock, and sacred land primarily on Navajo-Diné lands. In the decades since, a full waste cleanup has never been conducted, families have remained on their poisoned homelands, and the spill’s health effects have claimed many lives. A scholarly introduction disrupts a singular American ecocritical genealogy by disentangling the linkages between settler colonialism, gender, spatiality, and race among those affected by uranium mining along the northwestern corridor of New Mexico. This introduction also presents postcolonial ecology and alternative cartography as well as characteristics of Indigenous and Chicana literary production, and affect theory in its abilities to re-member the spectral, racialized female subject. The creative portion of the dissertation is a novel, which deploys a decolonizing storytelling methodology to focus on the wellbeing of an Indigenous-Chicano family and its community, in particular its Chicana-Indigenous narrator, through an enactment of slow violence that leads up to the uranium spill, documents the dissolution of the family, and points to the spill’s (after)effects.

Shadow people (also known as shadow men, shadow folk, or shadow beings) are supernatural shadow-like creatures of both modern folklore and traditional native American beliefs. According to folklore, they appear as dark forms in the peripheries of people's vision and disintegrate or move between walls when noticed [1][2].
