(2013) Models of God and alternative ultimate realities, Dordrecht, Springer.
In this essay I use the notion of divine values, those values analytically assigned to the concept of God, as a means of understanding replies to criticisms of open theism. I begin by orienting open theism according to the divine values open theist's embrace within the larger context of relational theology. I then present three criticisms, a theological criticism, a practical criticism and a philosophical criticism and an open theist reply to each. Finally, I attempt to show the underlying motivation which unifies the open theist's responses and points out where progress can be made in such discussions. This paper was delivered during the APA Pacific 2007 Mini- Conference on Models of God.
