Perfect Being Theology and Modal Truth
Faith and Philosophy 33 (4):465-473 (2016)
Abstract
In 'Perfection and possibility,' Brian Leftow responded to some of the arguments given in my 'The method of perfect being theology.' I argue here that Leftow's defense of the perfect being theologian is unsuccessful, and consider the prospects of perfect being theology more generally.Author's Profile
