2015 Edward Cadbury Lectures 'God Over All' delivered by Professor William Lane Craig (Talbot School of Theology and Houston Baptist University; PhD University of Birmingham 1977). Hosted by the John Hick Centre for Philosophy of Religion at the University of Birmingham.
Lecture 3 'Anti-Platonic Realism': Theists who feel the force of the Indispensability Argument might have recourse to non-Platonic forms of realism in order to meet Platonism’s challenge. But non-Platonic realisms like absolute creationism and divine conceptualism face certain problems of their own, which ought to motivate theists to take a serious look at anti-realist perspectives.
