Since she believes the soul is everlasting, Shirley says she does not attend funerals—in her belief system, no one ever dies.

"Nobody's dead, so why am I going to a funeral?" she says.

That's why we're so interested in star nations and extraterrestrials and so forth, because we probably had experiences there and it's in our memory system."
