The grounds of worship again: a reply to Crowe
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we respond to Benjamin Crowe’s criticisms in this issue of our discussion of the grounds of worship. We clarify our previous position, and examine Crowe’s account of what it is about God’s nature that might ground our obligation to worship Him. We find Crowe’s proposals no more persuasive than the accounts that we examined in our previous paper, and conclude that theists still owe us an account of what it is in virtue of which we have obligations to worship God.

In this paper we examine some of the many questions surrounding the notion of worship, focusing on the claim that human beings have obligations to worship God. We explore a number of attempts to ground our supposed duty to worship God, and argue that each ...

Abstract— In this paper, input impedance of a vertical rod under lightning stroke is first computed by applying the method of moments (MoM) on the Maxwell’s equations. The circuit model is then achieved through applying modified vector fitting (MVF) on the computed input impedance. After then the equivalent circuit is again extracted for a few values of soil conductivity and rod radius. Finally...
