Abstract

A doctrine of original sin or of the human condition generally requires an account of how that sin or condition is transmitted. One would think there are two options for thinking about this. Either original sin is innate or it is acquired. Both would seem to be problematic, the former because all the available options involve untoward metaphysical commitments or implicate God in unacceptable ways; the latter because of the uniformity of the human condition the doctrine requires. In this article, I use conceptual advances within the cognitive science of religion and empirical research to advance a plausible model of what the human condition consists in and how it is passed down.
原罪的自然本性
关于原罪或人类状况的教义通常需要解释这种罪或状况是如何传播的。人们可能会认为,考虑这个问题有两种选择。原罪要么是先天的,要么是后天的。两者似乎都是有问题的,前者是因为所有可能的选择都涉及到令人不快的形而上学承诺或以不可接受的方式暗示上帝;后者是因为教义所要求的人类条件的一致性。在这篇文章中,我利用宗教认知科学和实证研究中的概念进步,提出了一个合理的模型,说明人类状况是由什么组成的,以及它是如何传递下去的。
