What is consciousness? Can we explain human consciousness without God?
Brent talks with Joshua Farris, a teacher, pastor, editor, author, blogger and podcaster. His speciality is the soul as well as divine justice, the atonement and a lot of other things. He’s currently the Humboldt Experienced Researcher Fellow at the University of Bocum. He was a previous fellow at the Creation Project, Carl F.H Henry Center and the University of London among others places.
Joshua talks with Brent about human consciousness and why we need God to explain consciousness. Joshua is the author with Alin C. Cucu of ‘Science of Consciousness: The Elephant in the Room’ in ‘Mind Matters’ and ‘We Still Need God for Consciousness Despite Reports to the Contrary’ in ‘Worldview Bulletin’.
