Can God Be the Ultimate Explanation? Dissertation Defense, Part II

Dr. W. Matthews Grant—one of my greatest philosophical inspirations—served as an external examiner for my dissertation defense. Apparently, he didn't beat me up enough the first time, so he returned to the podcast to finish the job. (Okay, it wasn't really that combative. He just wanted to continue our conversation about the dissertation. : ) This was a fun, productive, and wide-ranging discussion. We get into divine simplicity (obviously), God as the ultimate foundation of reality, the principle of sufficient reason, epistemology, metaethics, and more. Consider this Dissertation Defense, Part II. ; ) For more philosophy content, head over to my Substack at https://journalofabsolutetruth.substack.com/
