  • Moral Arguments for God's Existence

    David Baggett, John E HareBOOKMoral Arguments for God's Existence2026

    This extensive collection is designed to canvass the terrain of moral arguments for God’s existence. Part I covers the rich and fertile history of the moral argument. Part II examines moral realism and its salient rival metaethical accounts. Part III delineates and describes an array of moral phenomena in need of adequate explanation. Part IV fleshes out several central theistic ethical accounts, from divine command theory to natural law. Part VI…

  • Patriotism & Moral Theology

    Open AccessJohn Hare, John E HareARTICLEDaedalus2020

    This essay examines the question of the moral justification of patriotism, given a Kantian view of morality as requiring an equal respect for every human being. The essay considers the background in Kant's moral theology for his cosmopolitanism. It then considers an extreme version of cosmopolitanism that denies a proper place for love of one's country, and it engages with a contemporary atheist cosmopolitan, Seyla Benhabib, suggesting that there…

  • The Merits of Eudaimonism

    Open AccessJohn Hare, John E HareARTICLEJournal of Religious Ethics2019

    This paper starts with Immanuel Kant’s definition of “eudaimonism” (a term he created) as a single‐source account of motivation, and explains why he thinks the eudaimonist is unacceptably self‐regarding. In order to modify and improve Kant’s account, the paper then revisits the Christian scholastics. Scotus is distinguished from Aquinas on the grounds that Scotus has a more robust conception of the will that encompasses the ranking of the affecti…

    My assigned task is to lay out the shape of my father's life and faith. This is daunting, but it is also a privilege because I loved him and admired him, and his life has been central in shaping my own. I am speaking also on behalf of my mother, my three sisters, Bridget, Louise and Ellie, and our children, Catherine and Andrew, Sam and Anisa, Hannah and Matty

  • Kant’s Divine Command Theory and its Reception within Analytic Philosophy

    Open AccessJohn Hare, John E HareCHAPTERKant and Kierkegaard on Religion2000

    The purpose of this paper is to look at how Kant’s views about the autonomy of the moral life fit with his less well-known claim that we should see our duties as God’s commands, and to examine how this complex of views has been received in the analytic tradition of moral philosophy in this century.1 My claim will be that Kant has usually been interpreted in this tradition as showing in the Groundwork that a divine command theory of ethics is hete…

  • Le Théâtre Comme Loisir Au Québec

    John Hare, John E HareARTICLELoisir et Société / Society and…1983Cited by: 1

    Si le théâtre professionnel anglais date des dernières décennies du 18e siècle, le théâtre français au Québec n'était qu'un exercice culturel pratiqué par l'élite dans des «Théâtres de Société», jusqu'au milieu du 19e siècle. Dans la dernière moitié du siècle, la venue épisodique de comédiens français élargit quelque peu le public; en même temps, les «Théâtres de Société» cèdent la place aux cercles littéraires et dramatiques formés par l'associa…

    John R Clarke, John H Sorenson et al.ARTICLEThe Hastings Center Report1980

    A forty-year-old man who had been stabbed in the chest was brought to the emergency room of a metropolitan hospital by the police. He was bleeding and his blood pressure was low. A physician applied manual pressure to the wound and administered fluid intravenously to restore blood volume. When the pressure was released to allow a surgeon to inspect the wound, bleeding immediately resumed, and pressure was reapplied. The patient was told that an a…
