2. Panentheism, Panpsychism and Neuroscience : In Search of an Alternative Metaphysical Framework in Relation to Neuroscience, Consciousness, Free Will, and Theistic Beliefs
Sammanfattning : This thesis philosophically examines, critically discusses, and proposes how a plausible philosophical framework of consciousness and free will should be formulated.

How can it be then that certain scientific theories, among them physical ones, nevertheless seem to be religiously relevant?One possible answer to this question is that the relevance between contemporary scientific theories and theistic/atheistic ideas is indirect, meaning that it is based upon metaphysical suppositions which presumably are in some way connected with scientific theories.
