EPIPHENOMENALISM

Epiphenomenalism consists of a group of theological doctrines about mental-physical causal relations.

These are defined in The Oxford Companion to Philosophy and, as Paul Edwards has observed, T. H. Huxley was a pioneer proponent of the idea. The theory implies that human beings do not survive the death of their bodies in any form whatsoever.
