Non-Platonic realism

William Lane Craig

pp. 165-213

Abstract

Two versions of non-Platonic realism are considered: James Franklin's physicalism and Brian Leftow and Greg Welty's versions of divine conceptualism. While conceptualism holds promise for the theist, a number of worries about the adequacy of divine thoughts as substitutes for abstract objects should motivate theists to examine more seriously the wide variety of anti-realist solutions.
