ABSTRACT
The General Resurrection Thesis and Two Characterizations of a Human Person
“We look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.” So ends the Nicene Creed with a reference to one of the most central teachings of Christianity. Similarly, the Apostles’s and Athanasian Creeds explicitly and prominently call attention to the resurrection of the body. In the discussion to follow I will take this position to imply (at the very least) what I will call The General Resurrection Thesis-the view that every human person who has ever died will rise again from the dead.
