I play several clips of my conversation with Dr. Ryan Mullins and respond with some brief commentary. In particular, I aim to clarify some of the disagreements and distinctions related to:
- Whether Classical Theists can or should talk about 'Cambridge properties' or 'extrinsic changes'
- A quote from Aquinas on how we should speak of God as "Lord"
- On how to understand the claim that all of God's actions are identical to his one divine act with Nemes' causal/effectual distinction
- How we might affirm a mysterian Trinitarian simplicity
The Classical Theism Podcast aims to defend Catholic Christian ideas in conversation. With the help of various guests, I defend three pillars of the Catholic Christian worldview: (1) the God of classical theism exists, (2) Jesus is our Messiah and Lord, and (3) He founded the Catholic Church. We place a strong emphasis on the first pillar, defending classical theism, drawing upon the work of Thomistic philosopher Dr. Edward Feser and many others.
