This entire thread is a delightfully candid takedown of the anti-intellectualist vitalism that pervades academic metaphysics, especially the cadre that descends from Notre Dame/Plantinga.https://twitter.com/eripsa/status/1225070609547304961 …

From this historical perspective, the fact that the vitalists are now haggling over "qualia" shows just how far they have retreated, and what narrow ground they have left to defend. Qualia is the death knell of vitalism. The naturalists have won. /end

But the connection between vitalism and qualia isn't just geneological/historical; they share a worldview, a philosophy of science, and their arguments are often just superficial variations of each other. Technical fluff aside, they are the same view. Qualia is the vital force.

All the "explanatory gap" arguments used to defend qualia today are direct descendants of the vitalist arguments against biological materialism from the mid-19th century. It's all just technical machinery aimed at arguing that we have a soul.

In short: anyone defending vitalism or creationism today isn't doing much more than providing an elaborate justification for why they don't need to do their science homework. Panpsychism is just a variation of vitalism, mystifying mind rather than life. The analogy is exact.

"The sciences won't satisfy me, no matter what they say" is simply rationalizing ignorance. "Nothing I say would change science" is equivalent to "nothing I say is informed by science", and neither are "pro-science" views.

If I'm aprioristically committed to science being constitutively incapable of certain explanations, then rationalized away any obligation to learn about the explanations actually found in science that might challenge my beliefs.

The popularity of such views speaks directly to the deep strands of anti-intellectualism in our culture. The rhetoric of an "explanatory gap" is compelling precisely because it provides intellectual cover for our folk theories and habituated practices.

So, if we're interested in adequate explanations of "how life works" the science is just fine. But if we're interested in *provocative alternatives to science* the rhetoric of vitalism or creationism will occasionally flare up, like gout.

Aside: Am I the only one who remembers the "New Atheism" stuff being at least partly provoked by elementary schools in the south teaching creationism as an alternative to evolution? The rhetoric of a "gap in science" has broad political consequences.

The logic of these positions is that of an "explanatory gap": 1. "Physics leaves something out" 2. ? 3. Profit The most insidious of these positions simply consist of bald-faced anti-intellectualism, masked by a lot of hard work.

So you'd think that as the science improved, the mystical alternatives would fade out, right? Nope! Some of the strongest defenses of vitalism and creationism are from scientists contemporary with Darwin proposing explicit alternatives to natural selection http://bit.ly/2RXOqHQ

The scientific alternative (natural selection+genetics) is a completely adequate physical framework for explaining the diversity of biological life. The "modern synthesis" leaves nothing out that requires a vital force or an unseen designer or other "science beyond physics".

It's important to understand that vitalism and creationism/intelligent design are reactionary positions motivated primarily by a belief in some fundamental limit to what can be known through the physical sciences. It's also important that vitalism and creationism are wrong.

The issue of "how life works" was one of the major conceptual battlegrounds during this period. Vitalists and creationists proposed that the complexity of life was clear evidence for a creator, or a vital force, or some other unseen power beyond the reach of physics.
