60 Exploring Ontological Arguments

In this episode of the Ex Umbris podcast, Dr. Gerard McLarney and Dr. Fawcett delve into the ontological argument for the existence of God, tracing its development from Anselm through to Kant, Hegel, and modern interpretations. They discuss its philosophical implications, its challenges, and the ways it has shaped theological and philosophical thought over centuries.
