If such an objection is applied to any theistic argument that relies on the same form of reasoning, we are led to ‘theological skepticism’. But here I argue that theological skepticism fails to undermine such arguments for theism if we take divine love as the grounding source for what I call ‘theological predictivism’, that is, predictions regarding certain divine actions. Furthermore, I claim that even if theological skepticism were successful, it would also compromise similar arguments for atheism. Join us 5 minutes prior to the beginning of the session!
