    Nowhere in the New Testament do we find this idea. Team Trump are rewriting Christianity.

    Ever wondered why boomers on median salaries could easily buy a house whereas people on median salaries these days struggle?

    The only time in history we had decent living conditions for ordinary people was when we taxed the very rich. These two things are connected.

    I've been awarded £178,087 to work out if the universe is conscious. Any idea what I should spend it on?

    There is no consensus among scientists on the fundamental nature of physical reality.

    My 6 year-old daughter just asked, 'Daddy, how do explain colours to someone who's never seen them?' Oh happy day.

    I just got promoted to professor! Main advantage of this is that no longer will every conversation with my mother begin 'When are you going to be a professor?'

    Great advice from Dennett for engaging philosophically with those you disagree with.

    This sums it up. We are living in period of history in which people have no idea what philosophy is. That might be okay if people just didn't do philosophy, but the upshot is scientists continuously doing TERRIBLE PHILOSOPHY under the mistake assumption that it's science.

    I could never get a bad science book published but scientists get to write bad philosophy all the time.

    Philosophy is the only academic profession whereby people have no interest in finding out (quick google) what those in the profession actually think on the topic. All of the evidence referred to below is consistent with, and accepted by, both physicalists & their opponents.

    I am perplexed by people claiming that consciousness is metaphysical. We have absolutely no reason to believe that, and every reason to believe it's a product of our physical brains. We can use fMRI to observe regions of the brain light up with activity when thinking about or
