Definition: The word "antinomy" comes from Greek meaning "against" or "opposite." It refers to a disagreement or conflict between two points, particularly within a logical argument or belief system. A common example in Christian theology is when a believer challenges a previous argument presented by someone else and argues that the opposing view must be rejected. This creates a situation where both arguments are simultaneously true but at a different point in time. The word comes from the Greek verb "antithesis," which means "contrary to."
