| Summary: | Michael Almeida once told me that he thought we were just a couple of hours of conversation away from reaching deep agreement about some important topics in the philosophy of religion pertaining to God, multiverses, and modality. This paper represents my attempt to move this conversation forward and to seek this common ground. Specifically, I respond to Almeida's paper entitled The Multiverse and Divine Creation. In the first four sections, I record my disagreement with him concerning some smaller matters. In Section 5, I try to persuade him that what he considers a bug' in the theistic multiverse is actually a featureand a desirable one at that. In Section 6, I close by identifying some points at which our views seem to converge. |
