| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Immortality |
 | | As we have already observed, the immortality of the human soul is one of the most fundamental tenets of the Christian Religion. | | | The rational soul is the proper soul of man. It is a Divine element, and it is this which is immortal. | | | The conception of the soul as a substance is illusory, and every attempt to establish immortality by rational argument is a mere sophism. |

| | The “Immortality” |
| | And "immortality" in a Godless world, an "immortality" without God or "outside God," would be an eternal doom. | | | To say "the soul is immortal" would be for a Greek the same as to say "it is uncreated," i.e., eternal and "divine." Everything that had a beginning was bound to have an end. | | | "Immortality" is not an attribute of the soul, but something that ultimately depends upon man's actual relationship with God, his Master and Creator. |

| | Immortality |
| | Immortality of the soul is the belief that the soul of man continues its existence apart from the body after physical death. | | | Most of the Old Testament is nonsense upon the supposition that the soul "dies" with the body, or ceases to exist, or even to enter some sort of "sleep". | | | Our Lord states that the future existence of the soul (of both the righteous and the wicked) is so clearly taught by Moses and the prophets, that if a man is not convinced by them, neither would he be convinced though one should rise from the dead |

| | Immortality Quotations compiled by GIGA |
| | Immortality will come to such as are fit for it; and he who would be a great soul in the future must be a great soul now. | | | The origin of the absurd idea of immortal life is easy to discover; it is kept alive by hope and fear, by childish faith, and by cowardice. | | | No one could ever meet death for his country without the hope of immortality. |

| | Although three novels have succeeded it, 'Immortality' is the last truly great Kundera novel, belonging not so much to this trilogy as to that represented by the earlier architectural masterpieces, 'The Book of Laughter and Forgetting' and 'The Unbearable Lightness of Being'. | | | There is further greatness, such as the treatment of the main theme of immortality, and man's desire for it, but I have said enough, and there is too much to say about, and find within this incredible book. | | | Kunderas "Immortality" is a classic in more than one sense. |

| | Death and immortality are the interlocking themes of the author's first novel since his 1984 bestseller, The Unbearable Lightness of Being. | | | "Immortality" is a remarkable read, full of insight and warmth, perhaps not with the same "drive" as "Unbearable Lightness" but with all the craftsmanship and heart. | | | Finally - I'm not sure which rating to give to "Immortality." I first put 4 stars, as it has serious flaws (namely, it doesn't truly form exactly one work and the experimentalism does not always work - put at the climax where it belongs!). |

| | ImmInst.org -> What is Immortality? |
| | Either way, though, physical immortality is preserving a desired identity for as long as that particular identity, or the volitional agent for that identity, desires to be preserved. | | | The physicalist holds that physical reality entails more than the material, consisting of epiphenomena that in principle elude the senses (such as qualia which cannot be observed by anyone other than the observer), while the materialist believes that physical reality is entirely phenomenal in principle. | | | However, for us mortals who are condemned without modern technology to live about 80 years, and perhaps 120 at best, a million years far exceeds a practical definition of immortality. |

| | Immortality in ancient philosophy : Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy Online |
| | In Greco-Roman philosophy immortality is discussed in two contexts: as an uncontroversial attribute of the gods and as a highly controversial attribute of human souls. | | | Several Presocratic philosophers held that human souls are immortal, but it is Plato who first offers extensive arguments for this claim, as well as extensive reflections on the ethical import of personal immortality. | | | Subdividing this latter topic, one may discern a more metaphysical question about whether every human soul as such is immortal in virtue of its nature or essence, and a more ethical topic about whether certain souls may enjoy a greater degree or share of immortality through adopting a certain mode of life. |

| | Arguments for survival establish nothing in favor of immortality; however, arguments against survival are arguments against immortality. | | | This line of argument would divert us from the present topic of this paper and bring out arguments about the existence and nature of God which are beyond the scope of this essay. | | | This essay will not discuss ethical arguments which attempt to establish immortality as a necessary consequent of the benevolence of an omnipotent God. |
