I will then criticize the view by developing two thought experiments. These thought experiments show that the persistence of the brainstem is neither necessary nor sufficient for the persistence of human animals. The upshot of the discussion is that any future account of human animal persistence, and thus any animalist account of our own persistence, should steer away from accounting for human persistence via the brainstem
