Abstract

This paper discusses the problem of Hell, defending the Aquinas-Anselm-Edwards response that any immoral act deserves eternal punishment because it offends against God. I argue that the response is more defensible than one might at first think, but nevertheless faces a serious objection. If we differentiate two different problems of Hell—the logical problem and the evidential problem—we see that, in light of this objection, the Aquinas-Anselm-Edwards response only solves the logical problem of Hell.

上帝真的会因为我偷了一根威斯巴巧克力棒就把我送进地狱吗?
本文讨论了地狱问题,为阿奎那-安瑟伦-爱德华兹的回应辩护,即任何不道德的行为都应受到永恒的惩罚,因为它冒犯了上帝。我认为,这种回答比人们一开始想象的更站得住脚,但也面临着严重的反对意见。如果我们把地狱的两个不同问题--逻辑问题和证据问题--区分开来,我们就会发现,根据这个反对意见,阿奎那-安瑟伦-爱德华兹的回应只解决了地狱的逻辑问题。

期刊介绍: Sophia is now published by Springer. The back files, all the way to Volume 1:1, are available via SpringerLink!   Covers both analytic and continental philosophy of religionConsiders both western and non-western perspectives, including Asian and indigenousIncludes specialist contributions, e.g. on feminist and postcolonial philosophy of religionSince its inception in 1962, Sophia has been devoted to providing a forum for discussions in philosophy and religion, focusing on the interstices between metaphysics and theological thinking. The discussions take cognizance of the wider ambience of the sciences (''natural'' philosophy and human/social sciences), ethical and moral concerns in the public sphere, critical feminist theology and cross-cultural perspectives. Sophia''s cross-cultural and cross-frontier approach is reflected not only in the international composition of its editorial board, but also in its consideration of analytic, continental, Asian and indigenous responses to issues and developments in the field of philosophy of religion.
