We are seeking abstracts (15 0-350 words) from those interested in participating. The tentative date is 15-16 April 2023. And the deadline for submission is 28 February 2023. Pa rticipants with accepted submissions will be given hotel accommodations an d a modest honorarium to help defray travel costs.
\nTheme
\nThe overall theme of the workshop is the Psychology and Epistemology of Religious Experiences. Philosophers of religion frequently assign reli gious experiences important epistemic roles\, such as justifying religious beliefs. But religious experiences of the kind philosophers are intereste d in are also studied in other fields as well\, such as psychology and rel igious studies. However\, the psychology and epistemology of religious exp eriences are presumably not independent\; studying them together is likely to be insightful in various ways. To that end\, we are interested in brin ging together scholars working on the psychology and epistemology of relig ious experiences. Potential topics include:
\n· The nature of religious experiences
\n· Taxonomies of religious experiences< /p>\n
· Potential psychological mechanisms and accounts of religio us experience
\n· The relation between perception and religiou s experiences
\n· The epistemology of religious experience
\n· The interactions between the psychology and epistemology of r eligious experience
\n· The relation of cognitive science of r eligion to religious experience
\nAny proposed papers on these topic s\, or similar ones\, are welcome. Papers exploring interdisciplinary appr oaches are also welcome.
\nInstructions
\nPlease submit an abstract (150-350 words)\, long abstract (350-650 words)\, or full pap er to Timothy Perrine at tp654@scarletmail.rutgers.edu. Submission should be prepa red for blind review. In a separate document please provide your name\, in stitutional affiliation (if applicable)\, and contact information. Submiss ion deadline is 28 February\; acceptances will be decided by 5 March\; and the workshop will be held 15-16 April.

The met aphysics can place demands on the proper formulations of physical theories . It is sometimes assumed that the governing view requires a fundamental / intrinsic direction of time: to govern\, laws must be dynamical\, produci ng later states of the world from earlier ones\, in accord with the fundam ental direction of time in the universe. In this paper\, we propose a mini mal primitivism about laws of nature (MinP) according to which there is no such requirement. On our view\, laws govern by constraining the physical possibilities. Our view captures the essence of the governing view without taking on extraneous commitments about the direction of time or dynamic p roduction. Moreover\, as a version of primitivism\, our view requires no r eduction / analysis of laws in terms of universals\, powers\, or dispositi ons. Our view accommodates several potential candidates for fundamental la ws\, including the principle of least action\, the Past Hypothesis\, the E instein equation of general relativity\, and even controversial examples f ound in the Wheeler-Feynman theory of electrodynamics and retro-causal the ories of quantum mechanics. By understanding governing as constraining\, n on-Humeans who accept MinP have the same freedom to contemplate a wide var iety of candidate fundamental laws as Humeans do.
\nThe talk will ta ke place over Zoom. I will send out the Zoom link closer to the meeting. p> DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20211006T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20211006T190000 LOCATION:ZOOM - see site for details SEQUENCE:0 SUMMARY:Eddy Keming Chen (UCSD) and Sheldon Goldstein (Rutgers)\, “Governin g Without A Fundamental Direction of Time: Minimal Primitivism about Laws of Nature” URL:https://www.noahgreenstein.com/wordpress/event/eddy-keming-chen-ucsd-an d-sheldon-goldstein-rutgers-governing-without-a-fundamental-direction-of-t ime-minimal-primitivism-about-laws-of-nature/ X-COST-TYPE:free X-TAGS;LANGUAGE=en-US:science END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:ai1ec-7657@www.noahgreenstein.com/wordpress DTSTAMP:20240328T210458Z CATEGORIES;LANGUAGE=en-US:Rutgers CONTACT:https://philosophy.rutgers.edu/events/department-calendar/icalrepea t.detail/2021/10/20/628/-/rutgers-annual-lectures-presents-prof-beatrice-l ounguenesse DESCRIPTION:

Professor Williamson will give 3 lectures: September 19\, 21 \, and 23. All will take place in AB-2400 [East Wing] from 4:30-6:30pm.
\nThe lectures will discuss problems in the methodology of contemporar y philosophy. Although philosophy without use of counterexamples would be a disaster\, the way they are currently handled is naïve. In particular\, it is too vulnerable to fake counterexamples generated by more or less uni versal human heuristics.
\nHuman cognition\, from sense perception to abstract reflection\, frequentl y employs heuristics\, quick\, easy\, efficient\, and imperfectly reliable ways of solving problems. To a neglected extent\, philosophical problems and paradoxes from reliance on the outputs of fallible heuristics. This wi ll be illustrated with examples involving vagueness\, conditionals\, belie f ascription\, truth and falsity\, and reasons aggregation. Potential less ons for philosophical method will be discussed.
\nOverfitting is a well-recognized methodological pr oblem in natural science\, where use of models with too many degrees of fr eedom leads to unstable theorizing and failure to detect errors in the dat a. Overfitting is also a major but ill-recognized methodological problem i n philosophy\, exacerbated by its reliance on heuristics. General intellec tual tendencies conducive to overfitting in philosophy will be discussed.< /p>\n
The ‘hyperinte nsional revolution’ proclaims that central metaphysical distinctions canno t be captured in modal terms since they are sensitive to differences betwe en necessary equivalents. Such hyperintensionalism fits the profile of ove rfitting. It is motivated by case judgments that are explicable as results of a fallible heuristic and it leads to models with too many degrees of f reedom.
