Summary

In this episode of Pints with Aquinas, Fr. Gregory Pine and I discuss the "3 Omnis": God's omnipresence, His omniscience and His omnipotence. What do they mean, and what are the common objections to them?

In this episode, watch as we:

DESTROY Richard Dawkins' argument against God's omniscience and omnipotence
Discuss the concept of "Molinism"
Talk about Ricky Gervais' comment that "God is in my butthole" (sorry, his words, not mine)
Plus, we answer a lot of common questions about the "omnis," like, "If God knows everything, then He knows if I'm going to Hell or not. What can I do about that?"

Buckle up, and get ready for an INTENSE theological episode!

0:00.0	G'day and welcome to Pints with Aquinas. My name is Matt Fraad and today I will be joined around the bar...
0:08.5	Table...
0:12.5	by my good mate Father Gregory Pine. And in today's episode we are going to be discussing the,
0:18.2	I've even written it down, the three omnis. God's omnipresence, his omniscience and his omnipotence.
0:24.7	What do they mean? What are some objections to them? Let's see, what do we get?
0:29.1	What do we get into? It was a long and very fun chat. Oh yeah, Father Gregory Pine destroys
0:37.2	Richard Dawkins's supposed argument, well not supposed, it was an argument, it was just a bad one.
0:43.0	And Father Gregory shows why. Dawkins has an argument against God's omniscience and omnipotency.
0:47.6	He tries to say they conflict in the God delusion. We talk about Molenism and why Father Gregory Pine
0:55.4	rejects that. Ricky Jivez once asked if God was in his butthole. Sorry, but he did. He said,
1:04.2	if he's everywhere is he? So we actually talk about that. Oh, and we also kind of ask questions,
1:08.9	I think a lot of people have, you know, like, okay, so if God knows everything and his knowledge is
1:13.5	infallible and he knows what's going to happen to me in the future and he knows that I'm going to hell,
1:18.7	then there's nothing I can do. So why shouldn't I just sort of resign myself to a sort of fatalism?
1:24.1	So this is a really kind of intense theological episode. So I think I'm going to really love it.
1:30.6	What do you think? Hey, before we go any further, click that bloody subscribe button down there.
1:34.8	Would you subscribe? Then the bell, it makes me feel good. And you know, it also forces YouTube to
1:42.4	let you know whenever we put on a new bloody, put out a new video. Check this out. Strive. I want to say
1:50.3	a big thanks to this sponsor, strive. I created it by the way, but I don't own it. So strive21.com.
1:57.5	It's a 21 day detox from porn course that'll help you break free of porn. Last time you saw me
2:02.3	advertising this, we had 14,000 men. We now have over 17,000 men going through the course. Basically,
2:09.7	for 21 days, you get a short video from me and you are invited to do a challenge and then comment
	...
