摘要

Stephen Maitzen(2006)在他的文章《神的隐秘性和有神论的人口统计》中，从神的隐秘性出发，对有神论信仰在全球的不均匀分布进行了论述。Max Baker-Hytch(2016)通过提供一种神正论来回应这一论点，这种神正论呼吁人类在认知上是相互依存的。在本文中，我认为Baker-Hytch的反应往好了说是不完整的，往坏了说是依赖于错误的模态判断。在探索了贝克-海奇可能挽救他的神正论并维持其失败的一些方法之后，我以Maitzen论点的成功作为结论。

Divine hiddenness, the demographics of theism, and mutual epistemic dependence: a response to Max Baker-Hytch

Abstract In his article ‘Divine Hiddenness and the Demographics of Theism’ Stephen Maitzen (2006) develops a permutation of the argument from divine hiddenness which focuses on the uneven distribution of theistic belief around the globe. Max Baker-Hytch (2016) responds to this argument by providing a theodicy which appeals to the fact that humans are epistemically interdependent. In this article I argue that Baker-Hytch's response is at best incomplete and at worst relies on a faulty modal judgement. After exploring some ways Baker-Hytch might salvage his theodicy and maintaining their failure, I conclude with the success of Maitzen's argument.
