Free Will in Philosophical Theology Kevin Timpe

Free Will in Philosophical Theology takes the most recent philosophical work on free will and uses it to elucidate and explore theological doctrines involving free will. Rather than being a work of natural theology, it is a work in what has been called clarification – using philosophy to understand, develop, systematize, and explain theological claims without first raising the justification for holding the theological claims that one is working with. Timpe’s aim is to show how a particular philosophical account of the nature of free will – an account known as source incompatibilism – can help us understand a range of theological doctrines. Kevin Timpe is Professor of Philosophy at Northwest Nazarene University, USA.

The notion that hell is everlasting and also a place of unending suffering inevitably gives rise to the following question for theists: how could an omnipotent, all-good and all-loving God allow anyone to suffer the torments of hell for eternity? There have been several attempts to shore up the doctrine of hell in the face of this problem. Love focuses on ‘universalist’ attempts to face the problem and, in particular, on three contemporary philosophers who defend universal salvation: John Hick, Thomas Talbott and Marilyn McCord Adams. She argues that they fail in their attempts to make a plausible case for universalism. One of her chief criticisms is that there is significant tension between their universalist accounts and the value of human freedom. Ioanna-Maria Love teaches Philosophy of Religion at the University of Glasgow, UK.
