O.G. Rose | Episode #190: Cadell Last on a New Philosophy Portal Course (October 20th, 2024): Christian Atheism @O.G.Rose.Michelle.and.Daniel | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 12 hours ago.
Throughout the 20th century an intellectual hole opened in our discourse on the topic of religion. How are we to think the West’s Christian legacy? How are we to think the modernist turn to secular atheism?
In moving to evolutionary ontology and historicist epistemology, science and philosophy alike tend towards a deconstructive approach to Christianity and traditional religion in general. However, in the real of social history, questions and tensions that used to have a religious solution, now fall into a confusing disorienting void.
As opposed to trying to fill this void with an overly-simplistic new Christian ideology, this course will attempt to hold the moment leading to our intellectual break from religion from the perspective of the transcendental turn. This opens us to the strange challenge of thinking both the Christian legacy, and its atheist transgression, at the same time. This is the core of Christian Atheism.

Cadell Last is a philosopher with an interdisciplinary background in fields of evolutionary anthropology, psychoanalysis, complexity science, and big history. He has spent much of his life searching for the truth of being through questions about the difference between humans and nature, and the consequences of human difference for nature. His PhD thesis, Global Brain Singularity, places biocultural evolution, mind-matter relation, and speculative futures in discussion, which produces insight that he then enhances through his expertise on thinkers like Hegel, Freud, Žižek, and Zupančič.
