Michael Egnor: The Evidence against Materialism
I hope you'll find this video as fascinating as I did. I should explain that my father was a professor of clinical psychology who introduced me to the work of psychologists who were educated in the Thomist type of philosophical anthropology--the philosophy of human nature. I majored in philosphy as an undergrad, specifically focusing on Thomist thought generally.

I thought it was well argued and persuasive.
ReplyDeleteA materialist is inclined to "intellego ut credam" (I think so that I may believe).
I put more credence in St. Anselm's insight, "credo ut intelligam" (I believe so that I may understand), recognizing that fundamental aspects of existence show teleology and purpose. I believe the proponents of this view have the deepest insight into reality and science.
And then there are the Progressives, who don't think at all.
Thanks.

In what now seems almost a prior life, I wrote about Anselm: Anselm's Platonism and the Development of Doctrine
