GOD, CONTRADICTION AND PARACONSISTENCY- Sept 16 - 4pm CET - LARAWebiner
Is the concept of God contradictory? But what a contradiction really is? Is
it a basis or limitation of our thinking? Is the principle of
non-contradiction a key to the understanding of reality? If it is, how can
we use it properly? Can logical systems that relativize this principle,
paraconsistent logics, as promoted by Newton da Costa, help us to clear the
way and have a better understanding of God? These are some of the questions
that will be addressed in this session, which will be  based on some recent
works by the speakers:
- N.A.da Costa and J-Y-Beziau "Is God Paraconsistent?"
http://www.jyb-logic.org/GOD
- Jc Beall, "The Contradictory Christ"

- Paul Weingartner, "Theodicy - From a Logical Point of View"
