1 de 2
The Epicurean Argument 1. A state of affairs is bad for person P only if P can experience it at some time. Therefore, 2. P’s being dead is bad for P only if it is a state of affairs that P can experience at some time. 3. P can experience a state of affairs at some time only if it begins before P’s death. 4. P’s being dead is not a state of affairs that begins before P’s death. Therefore, 5. P’s being dead is not a state of affairs that P can experience at some time. Therefore, C. P’s being dead is not bad for P. One sentence version: Since you can’t experience being dead, it can’t be bad for you.
Why Think Premise #1 is True? 1. A state of affairs is bad for person P only if P can experience it at some time. Some Cases…  Horrific Mozart performance  Terrible smell
