Michael Shermer with Colin McGinn — Mysterianism, Consciousness, Free Will & God (SCIENCE SALON #29)
Показать описание
Listen to the Podcast (audio) version:
This remote Science Salon was initiated after McGinn commented publicly, and critically, on Shermer’s latest Scientific American column on the mysteries of consciousness, free will, and God.
Well, life can be like this, but in this case Shermer invited McGinn on the show to discuss the topics in detail in order for everyone to glean a deeper understanding. A fruitful conversation ensued on these and other important topics.
This interview was recorded on July 9, 2018 as part of the Science Salon series of dialogues hosted by Michael Shermer and presented by The Skeptics Society, in California.
RELATED MATERIAL
In an illuminating thought experiment that supplements Science Salon # 29, McGinn penned an essay ("What is it like to be a human?") to help clarify what, exactly, Thomas Nagel meant in his famous paper “What Is It Like to be a Bat?”
