▫ Contextualism and Interest-Relative Invariantism
▫ A Dilemma for Clarke's Defense of the Contrast Argument
▪ Teaching
I'm teaching an advanced undergraduate course on Philosophy of Religion and a graduate-level course on Moral Luck.
[Why the blues, golds, and greens? I did my Ph.D. at The University of Notre Dame.]
