An Argument for Modal Realism
In Klaas J. Kraay (ed.), God and the Multiverse: Scientific, Philosophical, and Theological Perspectives. New York: Routledge (2014)
Abstract
I formulate an argument for a weak version of modal realism; to be precise, I argue that there are multiple (i.e., at least two) worlds that contain concrete entities. I conclude by discussing some implications the argument has for theism.Author's Profile
