[Francisco de Assis Mariano]

The next Logic and Religion Webinar will be held on Sep 17 (This Thursday), 2026 at 4 pm CET with the topic:

What is God?

Speaker: Jean-Yves Beziau<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/rqfbCE8wmrtng57WXSNfGGi7MgdH?domain=logicandreligion.com> and Flawé de Lara Bone (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)
Chair: Susana Gomez (Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Bogota)

Abstract: This talk applies eleven methodological procedures to the Socratic-Platonic question, “What is God?” Avoiding dogmatic definitions, it maps the divine across philosophical, religious, and cultural dimensions. The methods include definitions, quotations, proverbs, jokes, word clouds, Venn diagrams, opposition theory, the pyramid of meaning, categorization, typification, and symbolization. By analyzing theology, folk wisdom, and symbols, it structures diverse conceptions of God, ultimately seeking clarification over closure to keep philosophical wonder open.
