Another Look at the Modal Collapse Argument

On one classical conception of God, God has no parts, not even metaphysical parts. is composed form and matter, act potency, he existence essence. absolutely simple. This the doctrine Absolute Divine Simplicity (ADS). It claimed that ADS implies a modal collapse, i.e. God’s creation necessary. I argue proper way understanding collapse argument naturally leads proponent to reject particular premise argument: namely, “the same identical cause brings about effect.” However, rejection deeper problem for ADS. an explanatory gap: how can we explain relevant type indeterminism in simple God?
