There can be no doubt that God makes decisions a propos of the disjunctive multiplicity of eternal objects; the difficulty is to establish
in precisely what
sense these divine decisions are distinguishable from the choices and calculations made by the Leibnizian deity Whitehead's dilemma seems to be this: on the one hand, the principle of classification is to be challenged by positing the primordiality of a world of eternal objects that knows «no exclusions, expressive
in logical terms»; on the other hand, positing pure potentiality as a «boundless and unstructured infinity» (IWM 252) lacking all
logical order would seem to be precisely that conceptual move which renders it «inefficacious» or «irrelevant.»

sense if you look a the end of chapter 11, where Paul has digressed

in Romans 11:22 — if God is willing enough to be so severe as to cut of the natural branches (the Jews) he will certainly be willing to cut of the ones that have been grafted on (the Gentiles); Romans 12:1 - 2 is a very
logical «therefore» to follow Romans 11:21 - 24.

We shall take our definition of
logical possibility from Hartshorne himself: «A described state of affairs is «logically possible» if the description «makes
sense» and involves no contradictions» (6: 593) What Hartshorne means by «makes
sense» is never clearly spelled out
in his arguments.
Consequently, if metaphysics can be established at all, it is only as a transcendental metaphysics, whose concepts and assertions are all purely formal and literal, rather than analogical,
in the
sense that they apply to all the different things within any single
logical type whose meaning they explicate, not
in different
senses, but rather
in the same
sense.
Moreover, as we learned from our earlier discussion, he can occasionally speak even of a purely formal concept like «relativity» as being
in a broad
sense analogical, because it has systematically different
senses as explicative of the meaning of different
logical types.
If, on the contrary, they are taken strictly,
in any one of the
senses they have when applied solely to entities within a single
logical type, he is equally justified
in holding that they are then used
in the same
sense, and, therefore, are literal, not analogical, even when applicable to God.
This means that if terms like «relative» and «absolute» are taken
in their broadest meaning, without regard to distinctions of
logical type, Hartshorne has sufficient reason for saying that they can be used
in systematically different
senses and, therefore, are analogical, not univocal,
in application to deity.
But, then, there is something else that he very well could say that would render his apparently contradictory statements consistent — namely, that, although such terms as «absolute» and «relative,» or «necessary» and «contingent,» explicate the meaning of more than one
logical type, and thus apply to entities within these different types
in correspondingly different
senses, rather than
in simply the same
sense, they nevertheless apply to the different entities within any single type whose meaning they
in some
sense explicate, not
in different
senses, but rather
in the same
sense.
Thus Hartshorne holds that the term «feeling,» for instance, can be said to be analogical
in this
sense because, or insofar as, it applies to all entities of the
logical type of individuals, including the unique individual God, but does so
in suitably different
senses to all the different kinds or levels of individuals, with its
sense being infinitely different
in its application to God (1962, 140).
When Hartshorne says that there is a
sense in which analogical terms apply literally to God and, therefore, simply are literal
in this application, what he means by «literal» is not that such terms apply to God
in the same
sense in which they apply to any other entity of the same
logical type, this being, as we have seen, what he otherwise takes «literal» to mean.
Given His onto -
logical primacy,
