摘要

墨学被称为中国哲学中最具宗教色彩的一种。不负这个名字，它为精神境界在一个独特的中国背景下的存在提供了独特的证据。《墨子》用中国神话历史的见证来证明灵魂的存在。但除了这些文化证明之外，《墨子》还引入了一个与帕斯卡的赌注非常相似的逻辑论证。除了这四个明确的论点之外，《墨子》还包含了基于世界结构中存在的超自然秩序的第五个证明。

Ancient Chinese proofs for the existence of gods: The case of Mohism

ABSTRACT Mohism has been called the most religious of all Chinese philosophies. Living up to that name, it developed unique proofs for the existence of the spiritual realm within a distinctly Chinese context. The Mozi uses testimonies from China’s mythic history to prove the existence of spirits. But beyond these cultural proofs, the Mozi also introduces a logical argument that is very similar to Pascal’s wager. Beyond these four explicit arguments, the Mozi also contains a fifth proof based on the existence of a supernatural order that exists in the structure of the world.
