Abstract:
As a philosopher of religion who believes in anti-realism, Phillips denies the reality of religious matters such as "God", "soul", "resurrection" and so on. But as a religious Christian, He tries to reduce the meaning of immortality of the soul into having a moral life. Accordingly, he defines the immortality of the soul as equivalent to ignoring desires and achieving a moral life. Its immortality means man's participation in living with God. So he takes a pragmatic approach in explaining the grammar of immortality. This article has shown that in his view, semantically, there is no clear boundary between atheism and faith. On the other hand, the basis of his pragmatic approach is that ethics is based solely on religion, while most current theories in the field of meta-ethics reject this view of the relationship between religion and ethics. It also turns out that his view about immortality conflicts with the religious life of Christians.
