PHIL 176: Death (Spring, 2007)Lecture 3 - Arguments for the existence of the soul,
The lecture focuses on arguments that might be offered as proof for the existence of the soul. The first series of arguments discussed is those known as "inferences to the best explanation." That is, we posit the existence of things we cannot see so as to explain something else that is generally agreed to take place.
