Episode #58 - Can Human Language Even Describe God?

Can human language truly describe God, or do our words inevitably fall short? In this episode, we explore the centuries-old debate over divine predication: whether terms like good, wise, just, and loving mean the same thing when applied to a supposed infinite being as they do when applied to human beings. From univocal and equivocal language to Thomas Aquinas's doctrine of analogy, we examine one of the most fundamental questions in philosophy of religion.
