Occupation PhD Student at St. John's College, University of Cambridge
Location Cambridge, United Kingdom
Introduction A refugee from four years of corporate finance law, I recently completed a Diploma and MPhil in philosophical theology at St. John's College, Cambridge. Until recently I worked primarily on continental philosophy of religion, looking in particular at the weakness of Heidegger's foundational attacks on the legacy of Christian theology and its alleged complicity in the various errors he alleges the Western metaphysical tradition to have made. I'm now looking at questions of interest in analytic philosophy of religion, especially theistic responses to the problem of natural necessity. I'm working on a doctoral thesis tentatively entitled "God and Natural Regularities: An Inquiry".
