So. the Will of God is a property of God and this Will of God is the same, whether A of B is created?
And God's action to create A is the very same as God's action to create B? — Walter
I think we're back to the beginning, and you are just going around in a circle. God only makes one of the two choices, A or B. The choice was A. So we have "God's action to create A". There is no "God's action to create B" because God did not make that choice. That is a false premise. So your conclusion "God's action to create A is the very same as God's action to create B" is an unsound conclusion because it requires the false premise that God created bot A and B. — Metaphysician Undercover
Would you agree that there is no possible world in which God creates B and therefore it was necessary that God create A? — wonderer1
By what Walter stipulated, A and B are incompatible, so not only is it impossible that such is necessary, I would say that it is not even possible that God create A, if God has already created B. — Metaphysician Undercover
I would say that it is not even possible that God create A, if God has already created B. — Metaphysician Undercover
So this already created world is B. How is it that the following is not saying that God creating a different world is not even possible? — wonderer1
My question is simply, how can something which is necessary' and simple 'want' different things. — Walter
From God's perspective, prior to creation, it was what is "necessary" in the sense of needed or wanted. — Metaphysician Undercover
So, my 'intention' is a contingent part of me. — Walter
Contingent means neiher necessary nor impossible.. — Walter
So, if God van have different intentions, those intentions are Parts of Him. — Walter
