    TAC.26- Where is the Body of Christ?

    Cruz Davis is a PhD candidate at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. In a forthcoming paper he presents the "Problem of the Ascension of Jesus" and then evaluates various solutions. Here are some of the questions we'll be discussing. If Jesus was *physically* raised from the dead, where is his body now?  If you say it's in heaven, does that mean heaven has a spatial location? If yes, does that mean it's theoretically possible to reach heaven if we just had enough advanced technology? If no, then how can Jesus have a physical resurrection body?   For more from Cruz Davis, check out his philpapers page linked below. https://philpeople.org/profiles/cruz-davis-1/publications?app=530&order=added  Please consider becoming a patron.

    TAC.25- The Problem of NO BEST WORLD

    If there is no best possible world, then for any world God picked to actualize, God could have picked a better one. But if God could have picked a better one, then it seems that God could have performed a better action. And if God could have performed a better action, then God could have been better. But how can God be better if God is essentially unsurpassable (a.k.a. "the greatest conceivable being"). This is a serious challenge to theism, and in this video Dr. Kraay offers five responses to this argument.    To read more about this topic, check out Dr. Kraay's paper linked below. https://people.ryerson.ca/kraay/Documents/2010Companion.pdf  To see Dr. Kraay's defense of the view that there is a best possible world, and it is a multiverse, check out my interview linked below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyXDlyI0Swg&t=276s  Please consider becoming one of my patrons.

    TAC.24- A Defense of SIMPLE FOREKNOWLEDGE

    There are several views of divine providence. Among these options is the view that God providentially controls the world using simple foreknowledge. In this interview, Dr. Hunt defends simple foreknowledge against two objections- what he calls the metaphysical problem and the doxastic problem.    If you'd like to go more in depth on this topic, check out Dr. Hunt's paper linked below. https://place.asburyseminary.edu/faithandphilosophy/vol10/iss3/8/   Please consider supporting me on patreon.
