J. P. Moreland on Human Persons and the Self
J. P. Moreland has recently posted on Human Persons and the Self in which he briefly presents evidence for the existence of a unified, simple self. He then argues that naturalism cannot account for such a self and that the self is better accounted for by the Christian teaching that we are made in the image of God. I find his arguments compelling that…
… the self is a simple, indivisible, unified I that remains the same through change, for example, as the body changes or as memories, personality, conscious experiences come and go and become different.
