Ep. 73 - We Live in a Novel, Not a Computer Simulation w/Dr. James Anderson

In this episode of the Parker's Pensées Podcast, I talk with Dr. James Anderson about two of my favorite concepts: the Simulation Hypothesis and the Authorial Analogy for the God-world relation. Dr. Anderson has been a huge influence on the way I think about these two concepts and I have sought to advance his ideas in several ways. I cannot say enough about him, he is the man and has largely shaped the pattern of my thought. I hope you enjoy this one, and if you don't I'm going to tell him and he will come destroy you.  For more from Dr. Anderson check out: https://www.proginosko.com/ Also listen to our previous conversation on transcendental arguments and his coauthored argument with Greg Welty called "The Lord of Noncontradiction". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGfHZc-1mJ4 If you like this podcast, then support it on Patreon for $1, $3, or $5 a month.
