Ep. #144 - Classical Theism & God incarnate w/ Dr. Dolezal

What are some different models of the Incarnation in philosophical theology? How can classical theism, with a strong doctrine of divine simplicity, be consistent with the Incarnation? Why are "divestitive" or "augmentative" not to be preferred? What did Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange think about this issue? Scripture says, "The Word became flesh." How can classical theists understand such language? Dr. James Dolezal joins the podcast to discuss these questions.   The Classical Theism Podcast aims to defend Catholic Christian ideas in conversation. With the help of various guests, I defend three pillars of the Catholic Christian worldview: (1) the God of classical theism exists, (2) Jesus is our Messiah and Lord, and (3) He founded the Catholic Church. We place a strong emphasis on the first pillar, defending classical theism, drawing upon the work of Thomistic philosopher Dr. Edward Feser and many others. John DeRosa www.classicaltheism.com/support
