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.

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’.
