Classical Theism

Hi, I’m an Eastern Orthodox Christian theist who is currently concurrently acquainting himself with philosophy in general and reading ancient philosophy, specifically Plotinus(who would have guessed). To read Plotinus, I thought it best to acquaint myself with the Aristotle and Plato, since Plotinus draws a lot from them. I’m just here to interact with the ideas of other people.

Hello ClassicalLiberal.
Keep in mind that a robot does not create something but "assemble", "produce", something. The act of creation, properly speaking, can be said of a God's act only because only God can create without any existing thing (creatio ex-nihilo). Therefore when God creates, necessarily knows what create, as a composer knows what music he is composing. Now, since nothing can exists without the act of existance and the act of existance is God's first cause, it follows that God knows everything that exists or can exists.
