Jared Oliphint, Ph.D. student in the Texas A&M Philosophy Dept., joins us for a fun conversation about abstract objects and how it relates to theism. The problem is motivated by an inconsistent triad of propositions, formulated by Greg Welty:

Abstract objects (AOs) exist.
If AOs exist, they are dependent on God.
If AOs exist, they are independent of God.
