Abstract:
Today, atheists attempt to prove their claim—the denial of God’s existence—by demonstrating inconsistencies within the divine attributes. Sometimes they search for this inconsistency in certain attributes—such as Omniscience and Omnipotence—separately, portraying them as self-contradictory. At other times, they claim inconsistency between two or more attributes, such that their simultaneous possession by a single being is deemed impossible. One of the attributes they claim is self-contradictory is the Omniscience of God, which is thus referred to as the ‘Paradox of Omniscience’. To articulate this, they resort to arguments based on Cantor’s Theorem in set theory and the Divine Liar Paradox. In this paper, we critique and examine these two arguments.
