Hey Abraham, how are you?

This was a really great post. Thank you.

To me it has the delicious flavor of something Pascal would write. Lots to think about here.

I don't know whether you've already read it, or whether you'd be interested, but Plantinga's "Where the Conflict Really Lies" is very good on the level of what you're doing. That is, if I've understood you both correctly enough, he is dealing, not just with the actual arguments themselves, but also with the levels of discourse on which those arguments are being made.

Good stuff. Thanks again.

I hope you are doing well, Jesse. I finished listening to "Where the Conflict Really Lies" on audible. It was fantastic, thank you for the suggestion and kind words! I am going to buy a physical copy as well!

Hey Abraham, how are you? Great to hear this! I really did like that one. Especially the parts about Paley and his specific way of thinking, ie, a combo of metaphor and inquiry. Anyway, I forgot to ask you last time: Any recommendations for me? What's been a groundbreaking work for you lately? Thanks again, my friend. And keep up all this good work of yours.

Fantastic, thank you for asking! I really like Paul Nelson. I think Nelson's concept of "Design Triangulation" is intellectually appealing, although it is not in book form yet. https://www.discovery.org/m/securepdfs/2020/11/design-triangulation-nelson-112520.pdf

Nelson also has an ongoing series with a YouTube creator, Subboor Ahmad. They just posted a new episode this week! (the first playlist below)
