Episode Thirty: The Nature and Attributes of God

from The Eristicrats · host The Eristicrats

In this episode, we discuss the three key attributes of the Christian God - omnibenevolence, omnipotence and omniscience. We discuss the potential problems that arise from these different qualities, such as the question of whether God can do the illogical and if God's omniscience prohibits human free will. We look at the perspectives of many scholars, including Aquinas, Anselm, Augustine and Boethius.
