New Books in Philosophy · Tyler Dalton McNabb and Erik Baldwin, "Classical Theism and Buddhism: Connecting Metaphysical and Ethical Systems" (Bloomsbury, 2023) · 20 Dec 2023 podcast

Uh and here you're focusing on again several several objections. voice-verified

Um so, first of all, for listeners, why would you uh turn to contemporary criticisms if you've already sort of taken voice-verified

Up Buddhist claims and and uh classical theism. voice-verified

What's what's the motivation for this chapter in your book? voice-verified

Ma maybe we could talk about an argument um in that chapter, the objection from temporal knowledge. voice-verified

That one caught my eye because it's also one that's discussed in classical Indian philosophy, as you probably know, um, in terms of um, well, in uh Vajaspathimishra and m several other places engaging with with this kind of um criticism. voice-verified

Uh God in the world's arrangement has some nice readable translations of of this this argument. voice-verified

argument. voice-verified

Um, but maybe you can talk about it in the contemporary context. voice-verified

What's the the argument, um, the objection from temporal knowledge against classical theism for contemporary folks? voice-verified

Yeah, it struck me that this I mean, this is again like a voice-verified

an interesting connection to how this problem is discussed in uh in in the Indian context, but uh it strikes me that it picks up on a theme that is happening throughout your book, which is about language and the sort of an how we speak about God. voice-verified

Uh because one thing you might say is like, well voice-verified

You're using this word knowledge, and I know what knowledge is in a human context. voice-verified

I I I come to know something at a certain time and previously I didn't know that, or I can give some sort of account of the structure of a of an awareness event. voice-verified

I can talk about dispositional and standing knowledge and you know, I can have all these these things that I can cash out. voice-verified

Um, but then when it comes to talk about how an eternal, simple uh being can voice-verified

can have knowledge, uh it seems like our language slips. voice-verified

So uh voice-verified

Maybe just an invitation to say a little bit more about how you're thinking about language about God in this context. voice-verified
