On Metcalf 's Objections to the Modal Perfection Argument
Philo 8 (2):123-130 (2005)
| Abstract | This paper is a reply to Graham Oppy’s “Maydole’s 2QS5 Argument,” published in Philo 7, 2 (2004). I argue that he fails to refute myModal Perfection Argument for the existence of a Supreme Being, and that it remains arguably sound in the face of his alleged counterexamples and parodies | |||||||||
