14Analysis of existing: Barry Miller's approach to GodBloomsbury Academic. 2014.Miller's metaphysics, including his approach to God, is broad, deep, and original, with the potential to make a fruitful contribution to contemporary philosophy. Yet it has not received the critical attention it deserves. Miller's work deserves critical attention because of its thorough and original defense of three highly controversial positions: that existence is a real property of concrete individuals; that it is possible to prove, without assuming any principle of sufficient reason, that the…Read more

16The Problem of Evil in Early Modern PhilosophyBritish Journal for the History of Philosophy 10 (3). 2002.Many distinct, controvertial issues are to be found within the labyrinthine\ntwists and turns of the problem of evil.

We try to show that there is a possible explanation of the fact that there are contingent beings and t…Read more
