CHAPTER

Divine Attributes and the Puzzle of Luck

This chapter explores the philosophical implications of God's attributes in relation to the concept of luck, distinguishing between direct and indirect constitutive luck. It examines how God's divine impassibility interacts with His perceived engagement or indifference to the world, questioning whether His nature makes Him the 'luckiest being.' The discussion also contrasts various interpretations of luck, particularly focusing on how God's perfection influences the understanding of his ultimate nature and existence.
