Ep. 267 - The Scope of Analytic Metaphysics w/Dr. Joshua Sijuwade
Parker's Pensées
Exploring Modal Ontology and Dispositionalism
This chapter deeply examines the modal ontological argument through possible worlds theory, focusing on the complexities introduced by counterpart theory and essentialism. Philosophers like Plantinga and Lewis are discussed, contrasting abstract entities with the actual world, while implications of necessity and essence are illustrated using examples like Socrates. The dialogue highlights the rich debates around dispositional modality, essentialism, and the challenges faced by these perspectives in contemporary analytic metaphysics.
