Alvin Plantinga

Alvin Plantinga is a renowned American analytic philosopher who has made significant contributions to philosophy of religion, epistemology, metaphysics, and Christian apologetics.

He served as the John A. O'Brien Professor of Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame and held the inaugural Jellema Chair in Philosophy at Calvin College.

Plantinga has delivered the prestigious Gifford Lectures three times and was described by TIME magazine as "America's leading orthodox Protestant philosopher of God." His work has earned him widespread recognition, including the Templeton Prize.

Plantinga's influence extends beyond academia, as he has engaged with popular atheist thinkers and defended theistic beliefs using rigorous philosophical arguments.
