=====Modern mathematical set-theory objection=====
In set theory, the set of all natural number is said to be an infinite set, it contains an actually infinite number of members in the set. Not all mathematicians would agree on this however, some suggest that natural number sets are potentially infinite but is a minority view. Existence in the mathematical realm does not mean existence in the real world, because philosophical assumptions need to govern this realm but there isn't good reason to suggest that these assumptions are true. Infinite set theory still leads to the same type of self-contradictions as does the math of actually infinite number of members.

==Natural Theology==
: ''Main Article: [[Natural theology]]''
Natural theology is a philosophy of [[God]] found in nature a priori ruling out appeal to divine revelation as authority (which is called [[revealed theology]]) found in holy scriptures from various religious traditions like Judaism, Christianity and Islam.<ref name=bcnt>''The Blackwell Companion to Natural Theology'' Edited William Lane Craig and J. P. Moreland, 2009 Blackwell Publishing Ltd. ISBN: 978-1-405-17657-6</ref> Revealed theology of Christianity forms theological doctrine about [[Jesus]] for example based on specifics founded by [[exegesis]] of the [[New Testament]] and [[Old Testament]]. Authority is explicitly given to the [[Bible]]. Natural theology starts with the observable or demonstrable evidences found within the natural world so that authority is given explicitly to nature. Philosophical and scientific arguments probe the nature of nature so to speak.
