John G. Brungardt

Join John G. Brungardt, an associate professor of philosophy at Newman University and a Dominican tertiary, as he dives into the fascinating relationship between nature's laws and their underlying natures. He discusses the shift from viewing laws as divine orders to modern instrumental 'cheat codes.' Brungardt argues for a return to understanding natures as causally prior to laws. He also explores how scientific laws serve as human conceptual transcriptions of natural relations and ends by emphasizing love as the principle that maintains order in nature.
