The Latter-day Saint theological tradition includes philosophically interesting commitments that are distinctive in relation to Classical Christian traditions (e.g.\, that God has a body of flesh and bone\; God delivers new special revelation). Such distinctive commitments interact with beliefs that are shared with followers of many other Christian traditions\, such as the existence and unity of God\, the nature of after life\, etc.
\nThis workshop will include presentations by philosophers working on such issues. Their presentations will be work-in-progress versions of chapters to be included in the forthcoming \; Routledge volume Contemporary Philosophy and the Latter-day Saint Tradition\, \;which will be co-edited by Taylor-Grey Miller and Katharina Paxman.
\nSessions will be read-ahead. Participants who register for the conference will get access to the work-in-progress papers\, and sessions will be focused on improving the in-progress manuscripts.
\nAll sessions will take place at BYU in JFSB 4010
\nThere is a modest registration fee of $20. Students interested in attending may request a fee waiver at the following email address: ldsphilosophyproject [at] gmail [dot] com. There will not be a publicly accessible zoom link.
