Exploring metaphysics / David Kyle Johnson.
The first half of this course centers on human beings, examining the nature of the human mind and exploring the essence of people. The second half of the course explores the nature of the universe and what may be beyond it, addressing the existence of God, the nature of the universe, and the discoveries of quantum mechanics to explore the nature of physical matter itself.
