In God and Phenomenal Consciousness, Yujin Nagasawa bridges debates
in two distinct areas of philosophy: the philosophy of mind and the
philosophy of religion. First, he introduces some of the most
powerful arguments against the existence of God and provides
objections to them. He then presents a parallel structure between
these arguments and influential arguments offered by Thomas Nagel
and Frank Jackson against the physicalist approach to phenomenal
consciousness. By appealing to this structure, Nagasawa constructs
novel objections to Jackson's and Nagel's arguments. Finally, he
derives, from the failure of these arguments, a unique metaphysical
thesis, which he calls 'non-theoretical physicalism'. Through this
thesis, he shows that although this world is entirely physical,
there are physical facts that cannot be captured even by complete
theories of the physical sciences.
