When Belief Dies #88 - 'Freedom to Will' with Raymond C. Tallis


Listen Later

This week Sam is joined by Raymond C. Tallis, together they talk about theism, atheism, naturalism, humanism, personhood, consciousness, purpose and the freedom to will.

There are a few technical difficulties with this conversation, such as the audio getting better 20 mins in (roughly) and a slight buzz when Raymond starts to speak, but putting those aside, this is a fascinating conversation and one that I will be coming back to and reflecting on for years to come.

Professor Raymond Tallis is a philosopher, poet, novelist and cultural critic and was until recently a physician and clinical scientist

Cheers,
