Religion : Philosophy

Beyond Good and Evil , subtitled "Prelude to a Philosophy of the Future", is a book by the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, first published in 1886. It takes up and expands on the ideas of his previous work, Thus Spoke Zarathustra , replacing that work's sunny and life-affirming character with a highly critical, polemical approach. In Beyond Good and Evil , Nietzsche attacks past philosophers for their alleged lack of critical sense and their blind acceptance of Christian premises in their consideration of morality. The work moves into the realm "beyond good and evil" in the sense of leaving behind the traditional morality which Nietzsche subjects to a destructive critique in favour of what he regards as an affirmative approach that fearlessly confronts the perspectival nature of knowledge and the perilous condition of the modern individual.

In Consciousness and the Existence of God , JP Moreland argues that the existence of finite, irreducible consciousness (or its regular, law-like correlation with physical states) provides evidence for the existence of God. Considering Searle’s contingent correlation, O’Connor’s emergent necessitation, and Nagel’s mysterian "naturalism," Moreland concludes that these versions of naturalism should be rejected in favor of what he calls  "the Argument from Consciousness." more...
