Science and religion dialogue in Austin
I’m in Austin, Texas, to give a talk in a workshop organised by Cristine Legare – Breaking New Ground in the Science-Religion Dialogue Workshop. Looking forward to it. I have written a draft version of some the things I plan to say during the presentation: Philosophers have a very particular set of skills. Skills they […]
The future of CSR in Brno
March 5, 2012
Returning from another visit to LEVYNA in Brno. As per always, it has been a very useful trip, with a lot of progress on setting up the empirical research that I am going to be doing with the people there. A number of the talks at the meeting were also very worthwhile, helping me to […]

This year’s meeting of the International Association for the Cognitive Science of Religion is going to take place at the end of June in Aarhus, Denmark.

Cognition on Boston Common
July 24, 2011
It’s a warm Sunday afternoon and the park is full of people enjoying themselves. Nearby, some people are practicing what appears to be a play of some sort, and a couple of women are taking turns to play the ukulele. A tower clock rings the hour. It’s three pm. It all feels very different to […]
Across America
April 21, 2011
Trying to give three talks in four days in three different time zones is somewhat tiring. As I have found. For a week in March I went on a mad dash across the US to give talks in Arizona, Georgia and Alabama. The trip was made possible thanks to an invitation from the Chance, Purpose […]
In Ghent
March 22, 2011
Last week I was at the University of Ghent in Belgium. The main reason for my visit was that I was on the doctoral committee for Maarten Boudry but I also took the opportunity to give a talk to some of the people in the philosophy department there. Given that the defence is now over, […]
Abstract for Alabama talk
January 5, 2011
This talk is a run through the argument I plan to write up for a volume edited by Massimo Pigliucci and Maarten Boudry that’s in the works with Chicago University Press. For God and Country, not necessarily for Truth: The noncognitive function of superempirical beliefs Religions present a challenge to understanding as natural, cultural and […]
For a small fee in America
January 4, 2011
It looks like I will be going to the US in March this year to give three talks in one week, with a very short stop in New York on the end. I had wanted to go to a couple of other places but the scheduling ended up being rather tight, making it impossible to […]
Secularisation in Brno
December 26, 2010
My usual after-conference report has been somewhat delayed by a little thing called Christmas. The turkey, cake and other comestibles are now where they should be, however: So there is a chance to write a few words about the meeting in Brno. The conference’s title was almost as long as the conference itself – Twenty […]
