God, time and eternity: philosophical foundations for a defence of divine timelessness
No full textThe past two decades have seen an almost exponential growth in publications on the topic of divine eternity and the general area of 'God and time'. Increasing appeal is made to arguments and resources which ranges widely through contemporary science and the philosophy of time, whilst retaining commitments to traditional historical and philosophical theology. This thesis aims to make a methodological contribution to the debate that will be of use to partisans of all views of divine temporality and atemporality, as well as to isolate more specific philosophical foundations which, it is urged, would be required for a defence of divine timelessness. In arguing for the plausibility of these foundations, a case is made for the desirability of such a defence. This thesis argues for a methodology of constraints in which the key features are, first, that the theology of divine eternity can be affected by logical constraints introduced by arguments from Outside' as well as 'inside' itself, and, second, that such a structure is reliant upon the integration of a corresponding understanding (provided by the work of Katherine Hawley) of how science might support metaphysical claims and how alleged support might be challenged. The resulting structure is offered as a general philosophical foundation for debates in the field of 'God and time’. This thesis also argues that the most vital factor in the structure is the ontological status of the present. The denial that the present should be metaphysically favoured is explored, as a general philosophical foundation for a defence of divine timelessness, through topics in language and ontology, science, and epistemology. Results from this analysis are incorporated into the overall structure advocated by the thesis, together with considerations both of their effect on the debate, and of candidates for philosophical foundations from 'inside' theology which fit within the wider methodology of constraints on the theology of divine eternity
'God exists': meaning, reference and Anselm’s proslogion
No full textOver the last century, philosophy has comprehensively criticised the 'common- sense' view of the proposition 'God exists' as being meaningfixl. The purpose of this thesis is therefore to show that instances of 'God exists' can be considered meaningful, whether or not God does in fact exist. From the intuitive premise of compositionality - that the meaning of a proposition is determined by the meaning of its parts - I ask what options 'God exists' presents. Its appearance is that of a simple subject-predicate sentence, restricting possible difficulties in interpreting compositionality; it appears to take a subject and attribute a property to that subject. However, several problems are apparent. The first is the concept of existence. The first chapter, therefore, compares the views of Bertrand Russell with recent work by Colin McGinn, arguing in favour of existence as a predicate. McGinn presents a challenge to allowing the predication of existence of 'God’, centred around the concepts by which ontological arguments characterise 'God'. The second chapter, as an historical-theological angle on the meaningfulness of 'God exists’, takes up this challenge in an attempt to resolve it using Anselm's Proslogion, which is traditionally thought to demonstrate the existence of God by using the idea of God. Analysis of the Proslogion and the thought underlying it do not provide an entirely acceptable resolution, but lay the foundations for the remainder of the thesis.The third chapter argues for the rejection of McGinn's challenge. Having provided arguments for seeing 'God exists' as a subject-predicate sentence, and noted the difficulties in conceiving adequately of God, I address the problem of what account to give of 'God’. Against a background of debate in the philosophy of language, I advocate understanding 'God' as a name in God exists', and argue for a view of the meaning and reference of 'God’ based upon the work of Jerome Gellman. Finally, I combine relevant elements from existence, reference and meaning - incorporating theological suggestions arising from Anselm - to provide a model for the meaningfulness of 'God exists' which, I argue, demonstrates God exists' to be a meaningful proposition if God does in fact exist or if God does not in fact exist
Some examples of external colouration on English brick buildings, c. 1500–1650
No full textThe application of coloured limewashes as external surface finishes on many historic English buildings largely determined the original appearance and intended effect of their architecture. As the final stage in the process of construction, limewashes were more than the thin cosmetics which created the skin‑deep beauty of the building; they could articulate and emphasize chosen architectural elements, or conversely suppress the busy individual units of mural maonry in favour of revealing the entire building in a monolithic homogeneity of colour and texture. This paper examines some English brick buildings of c. 1500‑1650 with which the author is familiar, and asks of the surviving evidence to what extent, how and why colour was applied
An investigation into the inter- and intra-rater reliability of the Behavioural Rating Scale for cricket bowlers
No full textWe begin by outlining the progression of behavioural instruments (BI) in sport. Followed by a description of the process for establishing inter- and intra-rater reliability of the Behavioural Rating Scale for Cricket Bowlers (BRSCB), a new BI devised of 10 in-performance behaviours allied with cricket bowlers. Method. A selected sample were trained in the use of the BRSCB before participating in two data collections. Percentage agreement and intra-class coefficients where used to assess the BRSCB’s reliability. Results. The overall percentage agreement scored adequate reliability (78%) whilst the overall coefficient achieved excellent reliability (0.96). Discussion. Achieving adequate and excellent reliability gives the lead author confidence that the BRSCB will be successful in the applied settin
