Philosophy of Religion: Thinking Deeply about Faith

Together, we'll explore core questions in philosophy of religion: Does God exist? What's the difference between religion and spirituality? Is it possible to prove that there is a supernatural realm? What does a materialist worldview imply about the existence of the mind - or the soul? Can life be meaningful without faith?
Whether you just started thinking more about these issues - or have been pondering these questions for a while - this class will help you gain clarity about your beliefs (and experiences) and help you move forward in your journey.

Extra information

No prior knowledge of philosophy is necessary.

About Me

I'm a university lecturer with a passion for making philosophy accessible to everyone. I have a Ph.D. in Philosophy from UNC-Chapel Hill, and I've taught at universities in the United States, Australia, the UK, and most recently, the Netherlands.

I especially like working with students who've never taken philosophy before, as well as with those who have tried philosophy and found it annoying, frustrating, or impossible to understand. I've been there -- the mandatory philosophy course I had to take in college was a disappointment. I was lucky to experience better teaching after that, and I hope to help others discover philosophy, and to learn to do it on their own terms.

My expertise is in the philosophy of mind, ethics, bioethics, epistemology, philosophy of religion, and philosophy of art.

Reviews (1)

Anya really knows her way around both in breadth and depth of her field. She asks really cool questions in such a way, that it stimulates thinking together. I can recommend her 100% based on the sessions we had and looking forward to the papers we will discuss :)
Have a research thesis (BA, MA, PhD) you've been struggling with for a while? Need help with defining your research topic or finding a good structure for what you want to say? Have a pressing deadline and a ton of work that still needs to be done or processed? I offer thesis help and guidance to help you get to the finish line with ease and on time. Daily meetings are available for projects with urgent deadlines.
What is the nature of consciousness? Is there a self? Is the mind identical to the brain? Can life have meaning in a physical universe? These are big questions that philosophy can help tackle. Together, we will talk about how to understand these questions more precisely, look at some answers, and learn how to approach both questions and answers using critical thinking tools. Who is this class for? Students who've never taken philosophy, adults who are interested in exploring big ideas, and scientists and entrepreneurs who'd like to learn how to think about these questions in a more rigorous way.

The secrets of (kana and its sisters) and the secret is that they are defective verbs and the difference between them and (in and its sisters)
There are verbs in the Arabic language that indicate time alone or indicate the generality of an event without specifying it. The verb, as we know, consists of (event and time). So, if the verb indicates 1- (The time of occurrence is like the verb of being, which is a (general event) meaning the occurrence and existence of the event. It is known that every action is occurring and existing, and thus the verb does not convey the meaning of a specific event, but rather conveys the absolute occurrence and existence that is explained by the noun of “was” and its predicate) such as “was” or “Muhammad is diligent.” 2- Or to deny the time of existence and creation, such as “the truth is not defeated.” 3- Or on (the permanence of time) like the shadow and the lasting like the shadow of the boy standing 4- Or (the negation of the passing of time and its expiration), such as verbs that convey the meaning of the passing of time, such as “the youth of your nose has passed away.” If negation is added to them, they convey the opposite of their meaning, so they convey (permanence). Therefore, they described the negation in them as (semi-negation) because its purpose is to reverse the meaning of the verb, not to negate it. 5- Or to change from one time to another, such as (became, became, evening, and lasted), meaning he entered these times. All of the above, whether indicating the absolute occurrence or its negation, or direct indication of the continuity of time and its absorption, or by way of quasi-negation and its entry into verbs that indicate the passing of time, giving an inverse meaning, or indicating entry into a specific time and the transition to it, all of that is due to the poverty of the verb and making it vague, not specifying the meaning of the event in it, or not specifying the meaning of time in it because of its generality, which makes the verb incomplete in its indication and meaning. Therefore, it needed a sentence of subject and predicate to complete its meaning, so it was affected by it in its meaning and affected its predicate, so it raised the subject and lowered the predicate.

Distance learning philosophy course - taught by an independent philosopher with a Master's degree in philosophical research.
I'm currently working on my thesis. I took a literary preparatory class with an average of 16.5 in philosophy. I'm currently an "independent philosopher." I'm very interested in aesthetics, phenomenology, and the humanities and their approaches to urbanity! My favorite theme is the notion of dwelling. My approach will consist, mainly, of learning methods so that you are more efficient in your work - time is precious! As for knowledge, I will adapt it according to your needs/requests. I look forward to talking about it more fully and – why not – practicing it!
