  In an interview with Pints with Aquinas about 3 years ago, William Lane Craig said that Alexander Pruss is "scary smart" and on par with the atheist and philosopher Graham Oppy as an intellectually formidable thinker. (Craig also mentioned J. Howard Sobel as another very intelligent atheist and philosopher, but Sobel passed away so Oppy would be the "torch bearer" for intellectual defenses of atheism. Craig likewise mentioned Rob Koons and Josh Rasmussen as very intelligent Christian philosophers who would have the intellectual chops to square up with Oppy.)

  What would you say is more plausible for an actual infinity to exist &gt;IN&lt; our time/space reality….. <br><br>Lets take “the card” analogy for consideration in this.<br><br>A) the Cards must continually be added, one after another, too infinity. ( in witch, is this actually infinity?) <br><br>B) the cards dont have to be continually added because it already exists fully and completely. ( somehow 🤷🏻‍♂️)<br><br>?????????

  Did Greeks not consider the possibility of Earth sitting on top of a turtle, that unlike earth, does not have to fall? say, a turtle made more of fire or air? Or just some other animal, like a bird?

  Even if we accept that the Universe was created by something that necessarily exists, why can&apos;t it be that the cause of the Universe is different from the being that then designed it? Why can&apos;t it be that the necessary cause of the Universe creates this intelligent being which then creates the Universe; or that this necessary cause creates the Universe and this being?

  The issue with his paradoxes is he assumes actual infinities rather than potential — which is quite odd for someone familiar with Aristotelian philosophy.

  I’d love to pick these philosophers’ brains over why Christianity over other forms of theism. I find the case for theism very compelling, and find the case for Christianity most compelling, but I think the case for theism is a lot more solid than the case for Christianity specifically. Love to talk to someone as smart as Pruss about it.
