Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses the medieval Christian thinker, monk, and bishop, Anselm of Canterbury's work, the Proslogion, and focuses on his discussion in chapters 14, 18, and 23 of divine simplicity, further developing the "one argument" and the logic of "that than which nothing greater can be thought". God's simplicity is beyond what we understand as simplicity of created things, and means that every thing that God is, is the same as every other thing God is. This simplicity extends as well into the divine trinity.

This lecture discusses the medieval Christian thinker, monk, and bishop, Anselm of Canterbury's work, the Proslogion, and focuses on his discussion in chapters 5, 11, 12, and 23 focusing on further developing the "one argument" unpacking implications of God as "that that which nothing greater can be thought" (quo maius cogitari non potest). The divine attributes include whatever it is better to be than not to be, for example justice, wisdom, eternity, happiness, truth, among others, and each of them is entirely what God is.

This lecture discusses the medieval Christian thinker, monk, and bishop, Anselm of Canterbury's work, the Proslogion, and focuses on his discussion in chapters 3 and 4 of the being of God, which Anselm has argued in chapter 2 can be demonstrated , beginning from the formula "that that which nothing greater can be thought" (quo maius cogitari non potest). In chapter 3, Anselm further argues that God cannot be thought not to exist, which then raises a question about how the Biblical Fool is able to say in his heart that there is no God. This is resolved in chapter 4, where Anselm makes a distinction between two modes of "thinking"
