Description

Professor Taliaferro will defend the reality of the soul and consciousness. Questions to be addressed: What is the soul? What is the soul or mind-body relationship? Some Christians in the early church (Tertullian) and today (Peter van Inwagen) are materialists in their view of human and nonhuman animals. What are the merits of Christian materialism? This talk and discussion will bring you up to date in the current debate between Christian philosophers about the soul.
