Indexicals and Spacelessness
This Chapter is concerned with omniscience and the problem raised for divine timeless eternity by temporal indexicals such as ’now’ and ’yesterday’. Can an eternal God know what is happening now? Does it matter if he cannot? It is claimed that some arguments used to establish that God is in time prove too much, for they prove that God is also in space.
Keywords: eternity, God, indexicals, omniscience, space, time
