Abstract:
In an important discussion of the problem of hiddenness, Michael Rea briefly presents and defends an argument from divine hiddenness which he thinks encapsulates the problem of divine hiddenness, and then develops a detailed and nuanced response to this argument. Importantly, Rea claims that his response does not depend on the commonly held theistic view that God allows hiddenness to secure human goods. In this paper I offer a detailed criticism of Rea’s account of what justifies God in allowing divine hiddenness, arguing that Rea’s response to the argument from divine hiddenness is unsuccessful.

Abstract:
AbstractDivine hiddenness in the Hebrew Bible is widely construed as the conceptual equivalent to divine absence. This article challenges this influential account in light of Psalm 88—where the hidden God is hostilely present, not absent—and reevaluates divine hiddenness. Divine hiddenness is not conterminous with divine absence. Rather, with its roots in the ancient Near Eastern idea of the royal and cultic audience, the meaning of “hide the face” (סתר + פנים) may be construed as a refusal of an audience with the divine king YHWH. Building on this insight, I argue that divine hiddenness possesses a petitionary logic and develop a distinction between the experiential and petitionary inaccessibility of salvific divine presence. Divine absence and hostile divine presence denote the former, while divine hiddenness the latter. I probe the relationships between divine hiddenness, divine absence, and hostile divine presence, concluding that the absent or hostilely present God is not ipso facto hidden.

Abstract:
The aim of the paper is to try to find a solution to the problem of divine hiddenness, which in the context of science takes the form of the question of why, if God exists, science can completely ignore Him and yet explain away so much. We formulate the “argument from hiddenness in the context of science” modelled on the “argument from hiddenness” proposed by J. L. Schellenberg and show possible ways to refute this argument. We also propose a refutation in the form of “explanatory absconditheism,” the best expression of which is the thesis of “articulation” of scientific and theological ways of explaining the world. We also argue that the thesis of “explanatory absconditheism” can be extended to the entire discussion of divine hiddenness, providing possible response to the “argument from hiddenness.”

Abstract:
C. S. Lewis's Till We Have Faces is, among other things, a meditation on and response to divine hiddenness. The theme of hiddenness stretches throughout the work, and Orual's accusation against the gods centers precisely on the silence of the gods. Accordingly, Lewis gives a number of responses to the problem of divine silence or hiddenness in the novel. In this paper, I explore Lewis's engagement with divine hiddenness by comparing his framing of the problem, and his responses given, to divine hiddenness in modern philosophy of religion: the argument of J. L. Schellenberg and his responders. I argue that at least two of Lewis's responses in Till We Have Faces are similar to those found in this literature, despite predating Schellenberg's argument by almost fifty years, and that a third response, though different, is an important though often neglected response today.

Abstract:
Whether the weakness of the evidence for God’s existence is not a sign that God is hidden, but rather a revelation that God does not exist is the question I will explore in this paper. I will investigate whether the absence of sufficient evidence for God constitutes evidence of his absence. Since it is not clear a-priori that God would be more clearly revealed to humans, reasons must be provided to show the degree of clarity and level of accessibility one would expect to find if God exists and remains hidden.

Abstract:
Arguments from divine hiddenness attempt to demonstrate that the apparent hiddenness of God is a reason for thinking God does not exist. One of the most prominent arguments from divine hiddenness maintains that if God existed He would do what He could to ensure that all persons have access to conscious personal relationship with Him. But since such relationship is impossible for those who do not believe God exists, God would ensure that everyone has evidence sufficient to believe that He exists. That there are people who do not believe God exists due only to a lack of evidence is therefore a reason for thinking that God does not exist. One of the most prominent ways to respond to this kind of argument from divine hiddenness is to maintain that God withholds evidence of Himself in order to bring about some greater good or another. But there are a few challenges facing these 'greater goods' responses. First, some proposed greater goods benefit only someone other than the nonbeliever; one might argue that God would not withhold evidence sufficient for belief from one person entirely for the benefit of another person. Second, some proposed greater goods presuppose libertarian free will; but it has been argued that God would not allow such free will due to the great evil it brings about. Third, if a conscious personal relationship with God is greater than all other goods we might wonder how there could be goods for the sake of which God would be willing to withhold such relationship from some people. Finally, if God is infinitely resourceful and if all goods come from God, it is somewhat puzzling how there could be goods which preclude conscious personal relationship with God. In this thesis I aim to address these challenges to greater goods responses to the hiddenness argument.

Full text
Abstract:
Calvin's "Theodicy" has been substantially ignored or simply negated until now on the assumption that the issues raised by the modern problem of evil and Calvin's discussion of providence and evil are different. The unspoken premise underlying this conviction is that theodicy would be a modern problem, since earlier formulations in no way attempted to justify God's actions. The goal of the present research decisively goes in the opposite direction. It aims to demonstrate that one of the most important reasons that prompted Calvin to preach for almost 2 years 159 Sermons on the Book of Job was to give an answer to the anguishing problem of human suffering and to "vindicate" God's justice. As if he were installed in a tribunal and with the enthusiasm of a lawyer Calvin made recourse to all the possible formal exceptions and substantive arguments, trying to persuade, convince, and exhort his contemporaries that God, in spite of all the charges made against Him, was not only blameless, but also just. The theologian, the minister, and the God's lawyer were merging within Calvin's person to the extent that very often it is not easy to understand who wrote: the theologian equipped with the instruments of law, or the lawyer armed with the instruments of biblical exegesis. His attempt found its more appropriate expression, when in the Sermons on Job he resorted to the concept of "double justice." The distinction between the "revealed" and the "hidden" justice of God enabled him to try to give a provisional answer to all those cases in which the divine justice was challenged. Nevertheless, Calvin's defence of God's justice reached its apex, when he conveyed the attention of the church to the definitive revelation of God's justice that wi
La théodicée de Calvin a été sensiblement ignorée ou simplement niée jusqu'à nos jours sur la base de l'assertion que les issues soulevées par le problème moderne du mal et la discussion de Calvin sur la providence et sur le mal seraient différentes. La prémisse sous entendue de cette conviction est que la théodicée serait un problème moderne, puisque les premières formulations n'ont nullement essayé de justifier les actions de Dieu. Le but de la recherche actuelle va décidément dans la direction opposée. Elle a l'intention de démontrer que un des motifs les plus importants qui a poussé Calvin à rédiger pendant presque 2 années les 159 Sermons sur Job était de donner une réponse au problème de la souffrance et de la douleur humaine et de défendre la justice de Dieu. Comme s'il était installé dans un tribunal et avec l'enthousiasme d'un avocat, Calvin a fait recours à toutes les exceptions formelles possibles et à tous les arguments substantiels essayant de persuader et de convaincre ses contemporains que Dieu, malgré tous les accuses faites contre lui, était non seulement irréprochable, mais également juste. Le théologien, le ministre, et l'avocat de Dieu fusionnaient chez la personne de Calvin au point que très souvent ce n'est pas facile de comprendre qui écrit : le théologien équipé des instruments de la loi, ou l'avocat armé des instruments de l'exégèse biblique. La tentative du Réformateur a trouvé son expression la plus appropriée, quand dans les Sermons sur Job il a utilisé le concept de la double justice. La distinction entre la justice "révélée" et la justice "cachée" de Dieu a permis à Calvin d'essayer de donner une réponse provisoire à tous ces cas dans lesquels

Abstract:
Interpretations of Barth’s earliest theology have made much of its eschatological orientation. Typically, such readings understand human history to be undermined by God’s presence. Furthermore, these interpretations usually hold that it was not until Barth’s ‘mature’ phase -­‐ the years of his Church Dogmatics -­‐ that balance was achieved. This thesis reexamines Barth’s early thought in order to demonstrate that such cannot be characterised as an imbalanced opposition of God’s presence to human history. Barth’s intention was not to nullify or negate the historical, but to understand it as limited and relative. Accordingly, the opening chapter reads Barth’s great critique of religion in his earliest works as aimed particularly at a form of religion which saw the provisionality of history as escapable. In the face of such rationalism, Barth insisted on the limitations of religion. These limitations, however, do not mean religion is impaired. The second chapter explores how religion can function positively in relation to God’s historical presence by paying attention to Barth’s account of the relative authority of preaching, tradition, and dogma. Against modern rationalism, Barth claimed these historical forms are authoritative precisely because their historical peculiarity calls attention to the historical limitations of human creatures. The Iinal chapter considers the way Barth’s early conIiguration of time’s relationship to eternity shaped his understanding of the method and signiIicance of historical theology, arguing that the forgiveness of God allows every historical period -­‐ not just the modern -­‐ to be signiIicant. The church proclaims its faith in forgiveness in part by offering generous accounts of human history.

Full text
Abstract:
The first half of this thesis argues that scepticism about the evidential force of religious experiences is driven by concerns about the traditional practices used to discern between 'illusory' and 'genuine' experiences. As these practices require commitment to a particular tradition, we have no way of deciding which practice to trust. Furthermore, the tests the practices employ do not bear on whether the experiences are veridical; and they are too coarse-grained for theologians to use them to regulate religious beliefs or seek theological truth. The thesis argues that we should seek new ways of evaluating religious experiences, and beliefs based on them, which address the concerns. The fourth chapter develops a procedure in which parties to religious disagreements understand God to be a perfect being, and use shared moral beliefs from outside their religious tradition to assign probabilities to putative divine actions, including religious experiences. The likelihood the divine action occurred given those moral beliefs is the likelihood the religious experience was veridical, addressing the second concern. The procedure attends closely to different sources of doubt, so avoiding the coarse granularity traditional practices are charged with. The thesis thereby argues against a sceptical response to difficulties faced by religious experiential evidence by offering a non-sceptical alternative which is articulated in enough detail to show how these difficulties can be surmounted. The fifth chapter completes the description of the procedure and shows how it can be used to formalize disputes in philosophical theology concerning the evidential import of divine hiddenness and religious diversity. The sixth chapter defends the procedure's presumption that God is a perfect being by evaluating an Anselmian account of the reference of "God".
