Resources on the Two-Minds Theory

Hello,

I'm wanting to write on the two-minds theory of the incarnation for an assignment in my Philosophy of Religion class. I have, of course, read Morris's book and the chapter on the subject in Philosophical Foundations For a Christian Worldview, but I was wondering if someone could direct me to journal articles and such that critically interact with the theory? Thanks!

Michael

Wow! This is something I would like to do in my philosophy of religion class. Unfortunately I'm forced to write on Hume

I found some articles on the two minds theory. One is a critique, the other is more of a review I think, but it may prove useful.

1) A Critique of Thomas V. Morris's Use of Natural Kind Terms in The Logic of  God  Incarnate

2) Review: by William H. Austin   (this is a JSTOR article. Since you're a university student, you should be able to access this article through the university library online.

3) Two minds theory   (this is a brief short review of the idea, followed by a listing of the main problems with it at the end.

These are just a few. Obviously there are more I'm sure in the major journals and in textbooks on this theory. To be honest though, I think you have a good assessment of the idea in Craig and Moreland's Philosophical foundations book. But it's always good to have other critiques. I hope that helped somewhat.
