"Animal Powers and Human Agency" in Neo-Aristotelian Conceptions of the Theology of Nature

This chapter argues that the paradigm for conceptualizing human action should essentially refer to animal powers. It develops an animalist account of agency in the Aristotelian tradition, on which animal corporeality fundamentally informs the paradigm concept of action.

"The Philosophical Meaning of Religious Exercise", in The Cambridge Companion to the First Amendment and Religious Liberty

This essay argues that religion is a distinctive form of human activity, and offers a philosophical account of what religion fundamentally is (and what it is not), within the context of the free exercise clause of the First Amendment.

鈥淎ction, Animacy, and Substance Causation鈥 in Neo-Aristotelian Perspectives on Contemporary Science

Are we animal agents? This chapter argues for the following claims: The concept of action in general is closely linked with that of animacy, i.e., the concept of being an animal. Thus causal exceptionalism for human agency, i.e., the claim that only human beings are agents, is false.
