'''Alvin Carl Plantinga''', born November 15, 1932 (age {{age|1932|11|15}}), in Ann Arbor, [[Michigan]], is a current [[professor]] of [[philosophy]] at the [[University of Notre Dame]], South Bend, [[Indiana]].  He is known for his lectures in the debate over divine sovereignty and providence, as well as works on the existence of [[God]], including a version of the [[Ontological argument]] based on possible-worlds modality.  He is a [[Christian]], and has rebutted many of the arguments of [[Richard Dawkins]].

Plantinga is also credited, along with Wolterstorff (1976) for first articulating the argument that belief in [[God]] can be defended as properly basic.
