Mark Solms & Michael Egnor Disucuss Materialism and Neuroscience

Mark Solms, Michael Egnor · Lecture · 1h 48m· Oct 2021

Neuropsychologist Mark Solms (dual-aspect monist, agnostic) and neurosurgeon Michael Egnor (Thomistic dualist, Christian) agree against mainstream neuroscience that consciousness does not reside in the cerebral cortex and that materialism is an unexamined and incoherent metaphysics enforced by academic cancel culture, disagreeing only on whether the underlying reality is Spinoza's impersonal God or a personal one.
