Michael Huemer (⫽ˈhjuːmər⫽; born 27 December 1969) is a professor of philosophy at the University of Colorado, Boulder.[1] He has defended ethical intuitionism, direct realism, libertarianism, substance dualism, reincarnation, the repugnant conclusion,[2] and philosophical anarchism.
Huemer graduated from the University of California, Berkeley and earned his Ph.D. at Rutgers University in 1998 under the supervision of Peter D. Klein.[3]
Huemer's book Ethical Intuitionism (2005) was reviewed in Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews,[4] Philosophy and Phenomenological Research[5] and Mind.[6]
Huemer is the author of The Problem of Political Authority (2013), which argues that the modern arguments for political authority fail and that society can function properly without state coercion.[7] Huemer is an agnostic.[8]
Huemer has stated that the presence of evil in the world such as children with terrible diseases is strong evidence that an omnipotent, omniscient, and omnibenevolent God does not exist.[8]
Huemer has argued that immaterial souls exist.[8] He has defended reincarnation in his paper "Existence Is Evidence of Immortality".[9]
Huemer is an advocate of ostroveganism, a plant-based diet with the addition of oysters and other bivalves.[10][11] Ostroveganism has been described as a type of "new omnivorism".[11]
In 2016, Huemer debated Bryan Caplan on the ethical treatment of animals, including insects.[12] In 2018, Huemer commented: "In the overwhelming majority of actual cases, meat eaters do not have any reasons that could plausibly be claimed to justify the pain and suffering caused by their practice."[13]
His Dialogues on Ethical Vegetarianism (2019) is a series of dialogues on the ethics of eating meat. Peter Singer, who wrote the foreword to book, commented that "In the future, when people ask me why I don't eat meat, I will tell them to read this book."[14][15]
