Religious Experience
In this book, Phillip Wiebe examines religious, spiritual, and mystical experiences, assessing how these experiences appear to implicate a spiritual order. Despite the current prevalence of naturalism and atheism, he argues that experiences purporting to have a religious or spiritual significance deserve close empirical investigation. Wiebe surveys the broad scope of religious experience and considers different types of evidence that might give r…

Owen Gingerich and Shaun Henson on Divine Order
The Legitimacy of Miracle
Defending Intuition in Ethics
This book is a remarkable defense of the objectivity of moral judgments, and if influential, it would almost completely subvert logical positivism in the Western tradition. The radical empiricist b

This paper examines the feasibility of the claim that perceptual experience might lie on a continuum, so that lifelikeness, and correlatively, that hallucinatoriness might occur in degrees. The first-hand accounts of twenty-eight people reporting a vision of Christ provide the basis for identifying the categories by which experiences are compared. Three specific vision accounts are used to show the plausibility of claiming that hallucinatoriess m…
