The End of the Will to Power
In a critical commentary on the final paragraph of The Will to Power (Der Wille zur Macht, 1067 (1885)) it is argued that Nietzsche ironically presupposes the metaphysics, and even the theology, he putatively eschews and repudiates.Nietzsche's anti-realism about aesthetics, in its broadest extension, is refuted by showing that the Apollonian is not an illusion but a fundamental presupposition of the Dionysian.Pace Nietzsche, Being (Sein) is primo…
The Problem of Being Someone
There is a genuine and profound problem about what it consists in for anything to be yourself.Once (perhaps per impossibile) all the empirical and modal facts about a particular human being are in, it still remains unexplained both what being you is, and why that human being is yourself.Being you seems an "extra" feature of anything.The problem admits of no scientific solution, and "being you" resists any purely logical analysis.It is argued that…
Quantum Physics and the Existence of God
Interpretations of quantum physics are shown to presuppose the reality of consciousness. But if a minimal realism about the external world is true, then the consciousness presupposed by quantum reality cannot be only that of the scientific observer, cannot be only 'local' but must be 'global'. Global consciousness is argued to have all and only the essential properties of God. Quantum reality depends on God's consciousness and the physical world …
From Here to Theology
Joshua Farris usefully applies my distinction between conditioned and de-conditioned philosophy to some limits of science, and the disclosure of the soul. It is argued that further de-conditioning is conducive to answering the profound philosophical questions: What is it to be now?, and What is it to be? but these answers are only adequate when they entail the existence of God. It follows that physicalism, determinism, and naturalism are false, a…
The British Empiricists
The Empiricists represent the central tradition in British philosophy as well as some of the most important and influential thinkers in human history. Their ideas paved the way for modern thought from politics to science, ethics to religion. The British Empiricists is a wonderfully clear and concise introduction to the lives, careers and views of Hobbes, Locke, Berkeley, Hume, Mill, Russell, and Ayer. Stephen Priest examines each philosopher and …

Duns Scotus on the Immaterial
Can anything logically be immaterial in any of the three senses of the term distinguished by Scotus? His first definition, using the notion of dependence, seems not to work. The second and third, using extension and abstractness, do not provide necessary conditions of immateriality, and do not distinguish different senses of the term. But being non‐spatial is indeed a sufficient condition of being immaterial, and I argue that there could be non‐s…
