S15 E3: The One About Metaphysics

I LOVED this chat with Dr. Martin Pickup so much.  He is an associate professor in Philosophy at the University of Birmingham and Director of the Birmingham Centre for Philosophy of Religion.  His particular specialism is metaphysics and the Philosophy of Religion so we had a lovely chat about these two things; specifically What metaphysics, how it's changed over time and how this has impacted philosophy of religion.  We discuss analytic theology, Leibniz and the Principle of Sufficient Reason, the Ontological Argument and look to the future of metaphysics.

Martin also tells about a new project he is working on - a global philosophy of religions project! 

If you teach Philosophy or Religious Studies A-level then I think you will find this chat really helpful.  It is also really accessible so your A-level students might find it useful too!
