On this episode, host Pat Flynn begins a wide-ranging conversation with Dr. Michael Egnor about topics such as mind, brain, dualism, the nature of the human person, neuroscience, and the soul. Dr. Egnor argues for dualism, stating that there are aspects of the mind that are not generated by the brain. They also discuss research on split-brain patients and its implications for materialism and free will. Dr. Egnor critiques the scientists who misrepresent such research and suggests that materialism is disproven by the evidence. He also expresses skepticism about the future of materialism and the potential resurgence of dualism.
