I present Dean Zimmerman’s conceptualization of the varieties of substance dualism. I then focus attention on a form of dualism that he has discussed briefly in a few places, Thomistic dualism as he calls it, or hylomorphic dualism, as I call it. After explicating hylomorphic dualism, I consider the two places where Zimmerman says the most about it, finding, in one case, a way to alleviate a worry he raises using the resources internal to hylomorphism, and, in the other case, a general agreement with his categorizing hylomorphic dualism as an intermediary position between substance dualism and materialism. Since hylomorphic dualism is something of an intermediary position between substance dualism and materialism, it stands to reason that it could be susceptible to attack from both sides. Thus, in the last portions of this article I consider the arguments Zimmerman answers against dualism and levels against materialism. I argue that the hylomorphic theorist can answer the charges against dualism at least as well as the other dualists can. I find that the main argument against materialism that Zimmerman provides, if sound, would also show any composite form of dualism to be false, too. Happily, the hylomorphic thinker has a method of denying the truth of the first premise of that argument, and so, of denying the soundness of the argument.
我将介绍迪安·齐默尔曼对物质二元论的概念化。然后我把注意力集中在他在一些地方简要讨论过的一种二元论上,他称之为托马斯二元论,或者我称之为同源二元论。在解释完同质二元论之后,我将考虑齐默尔曼对其说得最多的两个地方,在一个例子中,他找到了一种方法来缓解他提出的担忧,利用同质二元论的内部资源,在另一个例子中,他将同质二元论分类为介于物质二元论和唯物主义之间的中介位置。由于形态二元论是介于物质二元论和唯物主义之间的一种中间立场,因此它很容易受到双方的攻击。因此,在本文的最后部分,我将考虑齐默尔曼反对二元论和反对唯物主义的观点。我认为,形同型理论家至少可以和其他二元论者一样,回答对二元论的指控。我发现齐默尔曼提出的反对唯物主义的主要论点,如果是正确的,也会表明任何复合形式的二元论也是错误的。幸运的是,形塑思想家有一种方法,可以否定这个论证的第一个前提的真实性,因此,也就否定了这个论证的合理性。

O felix culpa! 哦,费利克斯的过失!
Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-09-20 DOI: 10.14428/thl.v7i2.67263

The claim of the Easter Proclamation that original sin is a “happy fall” (felix culpa) that earned us the Incarnation of the Son of God seems to virtually contain the elements for developing a “Greater God Theodicy,” according to which sin has been permitted by God “in order to” obtain some greater goods. In this paper I introduce four ways in which greater good theodicies can be drawn from the felix culpa claim: two “supralapsarian” ways (a deterministic and a Molinist one) and two “infralapsarian” ways (a conditional and a retrospective one). I consider the philosophical pros and cons of each proposal, showing that infralapsarian options are preferable.
复活节宣言声称原罪是“快乐堕落”(felix culpa),为我们赢得了上帝之子的化身,这似乎实际上包含了发展“大神神学”的元素,根据这种说法,上帝允许罪恶“为了”获得一些更大的好处。在本文中,我介绍了四种方法,其中更良好的神正论可以从felix culpa主张:两种“超然”的方式(决定论和莫林主义的一种)和两种“下然”的方式(条件和回顾的一个)。我考虑了每一个建议的哲学上的利弊,表明下天井的选择是可取的。

Presentism, Timelessness, and Evil 现代主义、永恒与邪恶
Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-08-28 DOI: 10.14428/thl.v7i2.67763
BenjaminThomas Page
There is an objection to divine timelessness which claims that timelessness shouldn’t be adopted since on this view evil is never “destroyed,” “vanquished,” “eradicated” or defeated. By contrast, some divine temporalists think that presentism is the key that allows evil to be destroyed/vanquished/eradicated/defeated. However, since presentism is often considered to be inconsistent with timelessness, it is thought that the presentist solution is not available for defenders of timelessness. In this paper I first show how divine timelessness is consistent with a presentist view of time and then how defenders of Presentist-Timelessness can adopt the presentist solution to the removal of evil. After this, I conclude the paper by showing that it’s far from clear that the presentist solution is successful and that unless one weakens what is meant by the destruction/vanquishing/eradication/defeat of evil, one can only make the presentist solution work by adopting a number of additional assumptions that many will find unattractive.
有一种反对神的无时间性的观点认为,不应该采用无时间性,因为在这种观点下,邪恶永远不会被“摧毁”、“征服”、“根除”或击败。相比之下,一些神圣的时间论者认为,现在主义是让邪恶被摧毁/征服/根除/击败的关键。然而,由于现在主义通常被认为与永恒不一致,因此人们认为现在主义的解决方案不适用于永恒的捍卫者。在这篇论文中,我首先展示了神圣的无时间性是如何与现代主义的时间观相一致的,然后是现代主义无时间性的捍卫者如何采用现代主义的解决方案来消除邪恶。在此之后,我总结了这篇论文,表明现在主义的解决方案是成功的,这远非清楚,除非一个人削弱了破坏/征服/根除/击败邪恶的意义,否则一个人只能通过采用一些额外的假设来使现在主义的解决方案起作用,许多人会发现这些假设没有吸引力。

A Divine Alternative to Zimmerman’s Emergent Dualism 齐默尔曼涌现二元论的神圣替代

Dean Zimmerman argues for the existence of souls as they enable us to avoid certain vagueness-inspired, metaphysical puzzles that plague materialist accounts of the person. There are far too many overlapping material thinking candidates for being the referent of “I”. Zimmerman suggests that an emergent soul whose creation is overdetermined by overlapping material entities will avoid the unwelcome overpopulation of physical thinkers. I will argue that parallel problems plague Zimmerman’s emergent dualism, there are too many souls produced where we want just one.
迪恩·齐默尔曼主张灵魂的存在,因为灵魂使我们能够避免某些模糊的启发,形而上学的难题,这些难题困扰着唯物主义者对人的描述。作为“我”的指涉物,有太多重叠的材料思维候选者。齐默尔曼认为,一个新兴的灵魂,其创造是由重叠的物质实体过度决定的,将避免不受欢迎的物质思想家过剩。我认为平行问题困扰着齐默尔曼的新兴二元论,我们只想要一个灵魂,却产生了太多的灵魂。

What the Experience of Transience Tells Us About the Afterlife 短暂的经历告诉我们来世的事
Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-07-25 DOI: 10.14428/thl.v8i1.67743
Line Ryberg Ingerslev
Sigmund Freud’s reflections on transience left him surprised that someone could revolt against the process of mourning. In Jonathan Lear’s interpretation of transience, the revolt is not simply a passing struggle of the mind, but a response to a difficulty of reality, that is, an existential struggle. Central to the experience of transience, according to Lear, is the disbelief in the existence of an afterlife. How might we understand the idea of an afterlife philosophically? I first consider three different philosophical conceptions of the afterlife that—in different ways—underline the relation between collective memory and the process of mourning. These reflections make it clearer which aspects of the afterlife play a role in the existential struggle that Lear describes. However, a further analysis of the temporality at stake in the denial of an afterlife is needed. I therefore look at two psychoanalytic interpretations of the refusal to mourn. The first considers the refusal to mourn as a way to deny change. The second interpretation sees the refusal as a realisation of meaninglessness that prevents the flow of time. I end the paper by arguing that the afterlife can be understood as a practice of articulation, which allows a shared time to flow. Such a practice will commit us anew to a shared world in which we survive with the wounding difficulties of reality.
西格蒙德·弗洛伊德对短暂的反思让他惊讶于有人会反抗哀悼的过程。在乔纳森·李尔对短暂的诠释中,反抗不仅仅是心灵的短暂挣扎,而是对现实困难的回应,也就是存在主义的挣扎。根据李尔的说法,短暂体验的核心是不相信来世的存在。我们如何从哲学上理解来世?我首先考虑了关于来世的三种不同的哲学概念,它们以不同的方式强调了集体记忆和哀悼过程之间的关系。这些反思让我们更清楚地看到,在李尔王所描述的生存斗争中,来世的哪些方面发挥了作用。然而,我们需要进一步分析否认来世的短暂性。因此,我来看看对拒绝哀悼的两种精神分析解释。第一种认为拒绝哀悼是否认改变的一种方式。第二种解释认为,拒绝是对阻止时间流逝的无意义的认识。我在论文的最后提出,来世可以被理解为一种衔接的实践,它允许共享的时间流动。这样的实践将使我们重新进入一个共同的世界,在这个世界中,我们在现实的伤害困难中生存。

Eschatology, the Elimination of Evil, and the Ontology of Time 末世论、恶的消灭与时间本体论
Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-06-27 DOI: 10.14428/thl.v8i1.74563
Andrew Hollingsworth
Part and parcel of the eschatology of the three Abrahamic faiths is the belief that sin and evil will be eliminated upon the consummation of God’s kingdom on earth. Not only do these beliefs affirm that God will ultimately “deal” with the problem of sin and evil, but that sin and evil will be no more. I refer to this eschatological belief as “the elimination of evil” (EOE). The EOE has important implications for how one understands the ontology of time. In this paper, I contribute to this discussion by arguing that ontologies of time that affirm the concrete existence of past moments are incompatible with the EOE. I also argue that solutions based on theories of hypertime, such as those posited by Tyron Goldschmidt and Samuel Lebens, also fail to solve the problems posed to those ontologies of time affirming the concrete existence of the past. I conclude that the ontology of time that best facilitates the EOE is presentism.
亚伯拉罕的三个信仰的末世论的一部分是相信罪恶和邪恶将在上帝在地球上的国度完成时被消除。这些信仰不仅肯定神最终会“处理”罪与恶的问题,而且罪与恶将不复存在。我把这种末世论的信仰称为“消除邪恶”(EOE)。EOE对于人们如何理解时间本体论具有重要意义。在本文中,我通过论证肯定过去时刻的具体存在的时间本体论与EOE是不相容的,从而促成了这一讨论。我还认为,基于超时间理论的解决方案,比如由Tyron Goldschmidt和Samuel Lebens提出的解决方案,也无法解决那些肯定过去具体存在的时间本体论所提出的问题。我的结论是,最能促进EOE的时间本体论是现场论。

Simplicidad divina radical 激进的神圣简单
Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-06-26 DOI: 10.14428/thl.v8i1.74633
J. Alvarado
many philosophers have combined a Platonic metaphysics about abstract entities and a theistic conception according to which God is the creator of ‘heaven and earth’, of all ‘visible and ‘invisible’. Supposedly, God is the unique entity a se, i. e., the unique entity on which every other depends ontologically. It has been a traditional contention of Platonists, nevertheless, that abstract things, like universals or numbers, are independent. How are these theses compatible? Several critics have argued that they are not. A theist ontology imposes —for them— the outright rejection of Platonism or, eventually, a milder form of Platonism that substitutes universals and other abstracta by ‘concepts’ or ‘ideas’ in the divine intellect. Philosophers of Platonic convictions have tried to assuage the conflict introducing restrictions in divine aseity or by subjecting universals to some form of ‘absolute creation’. None of these attempts has been successful. In this work a different approach is presented and defended. It is argued that the universal of ‘deity’, W, is identical to God. This is a radicalization of the doctrine of divine simplicity.
许多哲学家将柏拉图式的形而上学与一种有神论的概念结合起来,根据这种概念,上帝是“天地”的创造者,是所有“可见和不可见”的创造者。据推测,上帝是唯一的实体本身,也就是说,唯一的实体依赖于其他所有本体论。然而,柏拉图主义者的一个传统论点是,抽象的事物,如共相或数,是独立的。这些是如何兼容的?一些批评人士认为,事实并非如此。对他们来说,有神论的本体论是对柏拉图主义的彻底拒绝,或者最终是一种温和形式的柏拉图主义,用神圣智慧中的“概念”或“理念”代替普遍和其他抽象。信奉柏拉图主义的哲学家们试图缓和这种冲突,他们引入了对神性的限制,或者将共相置于某种形式的“绝对创造”之下。这些尝试都没有成功。在这项工作中,提出并捍卫了一种不同的方法。有人认为,“神”的普遍性W与上帝是相同的。这是对神性简单教义的激进化。

Jesus’s Confession of Ignorance and Consubstantiality 耶稣的无知和同质性告白
Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-06-25 DOI: 10.14428/thl.v8i1.68353
Steven Nemes
This essay argues that Jesus’s confession of ignorance about the day and hour of his return (Matt. 24:36; Mark 13:32) is logically inconsistent with the Nicene-Constantinopolitan doctrine of his “consubstantiality” (homoousia) with God the Father. The essay first defines “consubstantiality”, then presents three formulations of the argument, and finally rebuts a number of possible responses: from the textual originality of the phrase “nor the Son”; from the reinterpretation of “knows” as “makes known”; from the ideas of partitive exegesis and communicatio idiomatum; and from the question of the Holy Spirit’s knowledge of the things of God.
这篇文章认为,耶稣承认不知道他再来的日子和时辰(太24:36;马可福音13:32)在逻辑上不符合尼西亚-君士坦丁堡的教义,即他与父神“同质性”(homoousia)。本文首先定义了“同质性”,然后提出了论证的三种表述,最后反驳了一些可能的回应:从短语“nor The Son”的文本原创性;将“知道”重新解释为“使人知道”;从个别训诂学和通经学的观点看并从圣灵知道神的事这个问题出发。

Is Faith Supernatural? 信仰超自然吗?

The Cognitive Science of Religion represents a contemporary attempt at a naturalistic explanation of religion. There is debate as to whether its account of how religious beliefs arise is reconcilable with the religious account, which holds that religious beliefs are caused by God. In my paper, I argue that these two accounts cannot be reconciled when it comes to the specific question of how Christian religious beliefs arise if one accepts an important theological doctrine of the supernaturality of Christian belief. This doctrine implies that there can be no natural explanation for how Christian beliefs arise because they are a gift of divine grace. This leads to a conundrum for Christian theists: they can either reject the CSR account of how their religious beliefs arise, or they can reject the supernaturality of Christian belief. I argue that the latter is preferable. I then draw on the work of the theologian Denis Edwards to illustrate how one can drop this doctrine without abandoning some other fundamental tenets of Christian theology.
《宗教认知科学》代表了当代对宗教的自然主义解释的一种尝试。关于它对宗教信仰如何产生的描述是否与认为宗教信仰是由上帝引起的宗教描述相一致,存在争议。在我的论文中,我认为,当涉及到基督教宗教信仰如何产生的具体问题时,如果一个人接受基督教信仰超自然的重要神学教义,这两种说法就无法调和。这一教义暗示,没有自然的解释可以解释基督教信仰是如何产生的,因为它们是上帝恩典的礼物。这给基督教有神论者带来了一个难题:他们要么拒绝他们的宗教信仰如何产生的CSR解释,要么拒绝基督教信仰的超自然性。我认为后者更可取。然后,我引用神学家丹尼斯·爱德华兹的著作,来说明如何在不放弃基督教神学其他基本教义的情况下,放弃这一教义。
