Abstract: I am going to present and defend my recently published “open 
future argument” (Open Theism, Cambridge Elements, 2024). The upshot of the 
argument is that if there is future contingency in creation, then 
thoroughgoing open futurism is true, and thus there is nothing in reality 
that picks out a unique actual future. If the argument is sound, then major 
consequences for theology and metaphysics follow (e.g., there is no 
temporally linear block universe; there is no “thin red line” or complete, 
true story of the future; and, if God exists, then the future is open-ended 
from God’s perspective.

 

 

With best wishes,
