How do philosophical and theological perspectives conceptualize the relationship between God (as creator) and the laws of nature?
In my philosophy of religion class, we're wrestling with divine action. If God created the universe with laws of nature, does God then "intervene" to perform miracles, implying a flaw in the design? Or are the laws merely descriptive of God's regular action (concurrentism)? Does a deistic view, where God sets the laws and then doesn't interfere, render God irrelevant? How do thinkers like Aquinas, Newton, or modern theologians reconcile an omnipotent God with a seemingly autonomous, law-governed cosmos?
