Tim Crane's brilliant review of Chalmers's Reality +. Worth reading alongside this ultra negative response by David Bentley Hart bit.ly/3PO6qR0. Big questions! @timcrane102

Looking forward to discussing Love, Religion, and God at Living Theology in July!

My TLS review of Paul Fiddes' wonderful book on Iris Murdoch and her dialogue with theology bit.ly/3BsmmUn

Some wonderful papers at the recent BSPR conference. Philosophy of religion is really thriving, and i feel honoured to be president for the next year. First task: planning next September's conference on Love, Religion, and God.

Brilliant seminar by Akeel Bilgrami which reminded me of what great philosophy is and how it can be done with just a blackboard.

So happy to see that Theology and Religious studies and PRE are 11th in the UK in the new Guardian University Guide 2023 Roehampton Philosophy, Religion, Ethics, Theology

The CFP is up for our next conference 'Love, Religion, and God'. Speakers include Tal Brewer, Judith Wolfe, Paul Fiddes, and me.

Really looking forward to discussing this fabulous paper by King-Ho Leung on Sartre, Nagel, and the religious temperament.

'When the young men returned from war, with their analytic methods and their disdain for mystery and metaphysics, our four friends were ready with a joint 'No!' Finally reading the brilliant Metaphysical Animals. Thanks to Sarah Coakley for a fabulous gift!

Do think of doing a proposal for a short paper for the BSPR conference on Love, Religion, and God. Really looking forward to it!

I loved writing this paper, and was really inspired by a wonderful paper by Patrick Sherry (amongst other things and people!).

Deadline for short paper abstracts for BSPR Love, Religion and God = March 31. Do send along, it's going to be a great conference.

Proud to be working with such brilliant colleagues. Groundbreaking work on nature and rights of nature by Neil W Williams and Jeremie Gilbert.

Two brilliant things I have discovered recently: (1) Brad Gregory's 'The End of Macro-Narratives of Progress? History, Christian Theology and the Anthropocene; (2) Cat Power sings Dylan: the 1966 Royal Albert Hall Concert.

Really looking forward to this event at the University of Florida in November

A wonderful event David McPherson and I am so grateful for this opportunity to write my monograph The End of Desire: Meaning, Nihilism, and God. About to embark upon the final chapter!
