Wszechwiedza a wieczność

Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of the relationship between the two attributes: eternity and omniscience. Einstein’s theory of relativity and the related concept of time allows for a convincing reinterpretation of the classical conception of eternity as timelessness. I introduce this conception in the terms proposed by two analytical Thomists, Eleonore Stump and Norman Kretzmann. Given their conception of eternity, we can consistently define other attributes of the absolute being and defend the strong concept of omniscience.
