Even better than latkes and Xmas fruitcake!

The Invincible GFP Online Reading Group will be taking a short siesta over December. But that is only because we will have to store up our energy to handle the Return of the Invincible GFP Online Reading Group. Around January 15th, the Sensei of Semicompatibilism — the one, the only John Martin Fischer — will post opening comments on a chapter by the Incompatibilist Man of Mystery, Peter van Inwagen.

The subject matter is philosophical failure, and the reading comes from van Inwagen's new book The Problem of Evil, OUP (2006). Mad props (i.e., many thanks) to Oxford UP and Peter van Inwagen for allowing us to post a pdf of the chapter. Now go buy the book.

The reading is available now on a webpage near you.
The discussion kicks off here at the Garden of Funky Philosophers around January 15th.
