Ep. 179 - Why Cosmopsychism Could Be a Threat to Theism w/Dr. Philip Goff

In this episode of the Parker's Pensées Podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Philip Goff to discuss panpsychism, cosmopsychism, and theism. We cover some of Goff's academic papers wherein he argues that an agentive cosmopsychism could account for the fine tuning of the universe just as well as theism can but that it's simpler than theism and hence should be preferred. We also discuss how a panpsychism might account for. the laws of logic and other abstracta and the meaning of life on panpsychism.  Check out more from Dr. Goff here: https://www.philipgoffphilosophy.com/ and read his SEP article on panpsychism here: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/panpsychism/ If you like this podcast, then support it on Patreon for $3, $5 or more a month.
