In Defense of Divine Truthmaker Simplicity
Res Philosophica 96 (1):63-75 (2019)
Abstract
In his recent article “Against Divine Truthmaker Simplicity,” Noël Saenz has provided two careful arguments for the falsity of a theory of divine simplicity which he dubs “Divine Truthmaker Simplicity.” In this brief response, I criticize his two arguments, arguing that neither is sound.Author's Profile
