Why Materialism Is Baloney

June 25, 2021 11:00 am - 12:15 pm (PDT)

ConnectIONS Live!

The present framing of the debate between materialism/physicalism versus post-materialism/spirituality has allowed materialism to go unchallenged as the only rationally-viable metaphysics.

Join us for our next ConnectIONS Live when IONS Chief Scientist Dean Radin, PhD, will interview Bernardo Kastrup, author of Why Materialism Is Boloney: How True Skeptics Know There Is No Death and Fathom Answers to life, the Universe, and Everything.

Bernardo Kastrup seeks to change the debate by uncovering the absurd implications of materialism and by presenting a hard-nosed non-materialist metaphysics substantiated by skepticism, hard empirical evidence, and clear logical argumentation. In his book, he lays out a coherent framework upon which one can interpret and make sense of every natural phenomenon and physical law, as well as the modalities of human consciousness, without materialist assumptions.
