Well, I figure that this is how they will respond to your objection: God's thoughts are eternal and unchanging and therefore timeless; all of God's th...
If God creates time and even if he always in the state of creating time, then God is eternally creating time. Just like a person who is eternally crea...
Well, I imagine that some theistic philosopher has tried to make sense of it and I was curious to know how god remains changeless if god also creates ...
Also, in most faiths, God interacts with humans and this would seem to suggest a God that is in time; consider the Christian doctrine of the virgin bi...
It was probably said already, but science assumes methodological naturalism and actively tries to answer questions with natural explanations, but meth...
Nope, I said that there is a claim that miracle x occurred while many eye-witnesses were present. Never did I say that miracle x occurred and many eye...

So what is the metaphysical nature of the mind? Is it physical or not? So he sounds like a nominalist. If dennett is a nominalist, then he will not de...
Does an immaterial mind make the hard problem of consciousness any easier? It seems like it has its own difficulties. Consider that when you walk from...
Suppose that the experience of color was the result of an evolutionary adaption and that color was not a feature of the universe, the person who is di...
is dennett a nominalist in regards to the self? I think that however one views the self- as a real thing or not- will determine how they explain the e...
I don't think that is correct. Feser has stated that his argument is unaffected by whether the universe has always existed or not. If the universe is ...
