Top o' the Stack. Another deep dive into one of the gnarliest conundra in natural theology.
The problem may be cast in the mold of an aporetic tetrad:
1) Classical theism is untenable if the ED cannot be defeated.
2) The ED can be defeated only if DDS is true.
3) DDS entails the collapse of modal distinctions.
4) Classical theism is inconsistent with the collapse of modal distinctions because, on classical theism, God is metaphysically necessary while the world of creatures is metaphysically contingent.
