| 520 | |a Edward Feser defends the "Neo-Platonic proof" for the existence of the God of classical theism. After articulating the argument and a number of preliminaries, I first argue that premise three of Feser's argument - the causal principle that every composite object requires a sustaining efficient cause to combine its parts - is both unjustified and dialectically ill-situated.
