Book Description
In recent years, the ontological argument and theistic metaphysics have been
criticized by philosophers working in both the analytic and continental
traditions. Responses to these criticisms have primarily come from philosophers
who make use of the traditional, and problematic, concept of God. In this
volume, Daniel A. Dombrowski defends the ontological argument against its
contemporary critics, but he does so by using a neoclassical or process concept
of God, thereby strengthening the case for a contemporary theistic metaphysics.
Relying on the thought of Charles Hartshorne, he builds on Hartshornes crucial
distinction between divine existence and divine actuality, which enables
neoclassical defenders of the ontological argument to avoid the familiar
criticism that the argument moves illegitimately from an abstract concept to
concrete reality. His argument, thus, avoids the problems inherent in the
traditional concept of God as static.
