In this episode, we discuss:



  • What do neurotheologians get wrong about identity?
  • How can understanding identity help us understand neural events and mental events?
  • What properties belong to the mind that do not belong to the brain?
  • What are the key differences between reductive and non-reductive physicalism?
  • Does the physicalist anthropology make a difference in how we view human persons?
