An Analogical Approach to Divine Freedom

Proceedings of the Irish Philosophical Society:88-99 (2012)
Abstract Assuming an analogical account of religious predication, this paper utilizes recent work in the metaphysics of free will to build towards an account of divine freedom. I argue that what actions an agent is capable of freely performing depends on his or her moral character.
