He uses the argument from personal identity for mind-body dualism to show that we have a non-physical mental element to our minds. Peter Kreeft has put forward a deductive form of the argument from consciousness[7] based upon the intelligibility of the universe despite the limitations of our minds. Another Catholic philosopher, Edward Feser has promoted the Augustinian argument, including it in his book Five Proofs of the Existence of God. The first premise, assertion that non-physical mental states exist, implies a dualist view of mind. Therefore, one line of attack is to argue the case for physicalism about the human mind.[14] Moreland takes the arguments for the first premise and refers to classic defenses of dualism.
