In recent decades, scientific theories have postulated the existence of many universes beyond our own. The details and implications of these theories are hotly contested. Some philosophers argue that these scientific models count against the existence of God. Others, however, argue that if God exists, a multiverse is precisely what we should expect to find. Moreover, these philosophers claim that the idea of a divinely created multiverse can help believers in God respond to certain arguments for atheism. These proposals are, of course, also extremely controversial. This volume collects together twelve newly published essays - two by physicists, and ten by philosophers - that discuss various aspects of this issue. Some of the essays support the idea of a divinely created multiverse; others oppose it. Scientific, philosophical, and theological issues are considered.

This collection brings together broad perspectives exploring the relationship between theism and the idea that multiple universes exist beyond our own, aiming to thoroughly assess the idea that a multiverse is to be expected if theism is true. Contributors including ten philosophers, two physicists, and one philosopher-astrophysicist discuss various theistic multiverse models, and their scientific, philosophical, and theological ramifications. God and the Multiverse provides a definitive contemporary treatment of the provocative claim that if God exists, there are many universes.
