That being than which a greater cannot be conceived.' This was the
way in which the living God of biblical tradition was described by
the great Medieval philosophers such as Augustine, Anselm and
Aquinas. Contemporary philosophers find much to question, criticise
and reject in the traditional analysis of that description. Some
hold that the attributes traditionally ascribed to God -
simplicity, necessity, immutability, eternity, omniscience,
omnipotence, creativity and goodness - are inherently incoherent
individually, or mutually inconsistent. Others argue that the
divinity described by philosophers cannot be the same as the
providential God of revelation. In Perfect Being Theology Katherin
A. Rogers defends the traditional approach, considering
contemporary criticisms but concluding that the most adequate
account of the nature of God should build upon the foundation laid
by the Medieval philosophers. Written in a lively and accessible
style and offering an important historical perspective, this book
covers key areas of contention and many of the major ideas and
thinkers from all sides of the debate are included.
