CC014: Exploring the Contingency Argument with Dr. Josh Rasmussen (Part 1)
Capturing Christianity Podcast
Contingent or Dependent?
i like how you distinguish between contingent and dependent. The way that i like to frame contingent is in terms of, like, this thing can fail to exist. An that with a leaf, like yat, if you smash the leaf or if you burn it. I mean, another easy example to think of is like a chair. If we threw a chair in a furnace, then it would be eaten up, destroyed or turned to ash. So that chair is contingent. It didn't have to be there. And then also like to just say what a necessary thing is, like just the opposite of a contingent thing. It's like, yes, that's something that cannot fail to exist
