No, nothing at all so far. That's rather odd. I'm only about 100 pages in, but he has already dispensed with two different notions of presentism. The book is dated 2001, so that's a bit quick to change your mind...
Craig does endorse Lorentz's view of absolute (but unverifiable) time over Einstein's relational (verificationalist) time, but so far this does not imply the notion of presentism. Maybe he revives some form of presentism towards the end of the book, I'll let you know... |

Okay, I see by reading the bibliography that the PDF is talking about the same four books that supposedly were condensed to make Time and Eternity , so you must be right. I guess I haven't gone far enough into the book yet.

I'm nearly done with the book, and I'll be posting a summation of Craig's arguments in a new thread probably tommorow or Wednesday.
Has anybody read it yet? |
