The arguments for the belief are analysed in the first six chapters and include ontological arguments from Anselm to Go?del, the cosmological arguments of Aquinas and Leibniz, and arguments from evidence for design and miracles. The next two chapters consider arguments against belief. The last chapter examines Pascalian arguments for and against belief in God. There are discussions of Cantorian problems for omniscience, of challenges to divine omnipotence, and of the compatibility of everlasting complete knowledge of the world with free-will. There are appendices that present formal proofs in a system for quantified modal logic, a theory of possible worlds, notes on Cantorian set theory, and remarks concerning non-standard hyperreal numbers. This book will be a valuable resource for philosophers of religion and theologians and will interest logicians and mathematicians as well. 606 $aGod$xProof 606 $aLogic 615 0$aGod$xProof. 615 0$aLogic. 676 $a212/.1 700 $aSobel$b Jordan Howard$0252325 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811945203321 996 $aLogic and theism$94014556 997 $aUNINA
