Abstract

From showing that the first thesis of the realism that Lee Braver points out in A thing of this world. A history of continental anti-realism, is from a kind of realism generated by Christian philosophy, and, therefore, not from any kind of realism.   I will postulate two things: 1) that the problem of exteriority is only relevant in a personalist philosophy; and 2) that there is the possibility of generating a new type of realism. This other realism I will call post-creationist for not taking as a basis the onto-epistemic principles of Christian philosophy.
