This article defends a regulative ethics of voluntary belief. In order to determine the occasion and the scope of such an
ethics, the article begins with an examination of the concept of belief in conversation with the view of J. L. Schellenberg.
Next, against the dominant position in contemporary epistemology, it argues that some beliefs can be voluntary, in the sense
that they are under the immediate control of the believer, and replies to William Alston’s influential objections to doxastic
voluntarism. If some beliefs are subject to the immediate control of the believer, then in these cases believers are ethically
responsible not only for how they investigate those beliefs, but also for the choice of whether or not to believe them. The
article concludes by formulating and defending two types of regulative ethical principles governing voluntary belief. 相似文献

J.L. Schellenberg’s Argument from Divine Hiddenness maintains that if a perfectly loving God exists, then there is no non-resistant
non-belief. Given that such nonbelief exists, however, it follows that there is no perfectly loving God. To support the conditional
claim, Schellenberg presents conceptual and analogical considerations, which we subject to critical scrutiny. We also evaluate
Schellenberg’s claim that the belief that God exists is logically necessary for entering into a relationship with the Divine. Finally, we turn to possible variants
of Schellenberg’s case, and argue that the modifications necessary to accommodate our criticismas leave those variants with
much less of a sting than originally suggested by his provocative formulation. 相似文献
