Logos, logic and maximal infinity
Recent developments in the philosophy of logic suggest that the correct foundational logic is like God in that both are maximally infinite and only partially graspable by finite beings.

| Résumé: | Recent developments in the philosophy of logic suggest that the correct foundational logic is like God in that both are maximally infinite and only partially graspable by finite beings.

This article explores the argument from the nature of God to the nature of logic, and sketches the converse argument from the nature of logic to the existence of God. |
