The Modal Critique of the Ontological Argument. Thomas Aquinas vs Anselm of Canterbury
This article examines Thomas Aquinas’s critique of Anselm of Canterbury’s ontological argument, focusing particularly on its modal aspects. While Aquinas’s traditional objections (the fallacy of begging the question and the non-self-evidence of God’s definition) have been thoroughly studied, their modal interpretation requires further analysis. The article demonstrates that Aquinas rejects Anselm’s argument because it conflates the ontological ne…
On normativity of Clifford’s Principle
In this article, the author analyzes the question of the normativity of Clifford’s Principle: “It is wrong always, everywhere, and for any one, to believe anything upon insufficient evidence”. It is usually understood as a conflict between two types of doxastic norms, moral and epistemic. At the same time, researchers are unable to arrive at a single interpretation of Clifford’s ideas. The two versions of Clifford’s ideas of principle were comp…
The Problem of Epistemic Disagreement in Contemporary Philosophy of Religion Part II
In this article I focus on the problem of religious disagreement – whether one should loose one’s confidence in his or her religious beliefs in the face of significant disagreement on certain religious issues. The article consists of two large parts. In the first, I describe the main categories of the epistemology of disagreement in the focus of religious disagreement (first-order and higher-level significance of evidences in disagreement, fun…

Religious epistemology of Alexander of Hales and wisdom as a sense of taste
This article discusses the concept of wisdom as a sense of taste in the religious epistemology of Alexander of Hales (1185/86‒1245). The concept of wisdom as a sense of taste was quite common both in the tradition preceding Alexander and among his younger contemporaries (for example, it can be found in writings of Bonaventure and even of Thomas Aquinas). Alexander of Hales used this concept in order to solve some of the most important questions w…
A moral problem for theodicies
Одна из главных проблем в современных философии религии и этике касается того факта, что после случившихся в XX столетии событий, воплотивших в себе ужасающие проявления зла (прежде всего, это геноцид в отношении различных народов, а также концлагеря), предлагать теодицеи для оправдания случившегося стало оскорбительным и унизительным для тех, кто подобный опыт зла пережил. Автор статьи обращается к эссе Эммануэля Левинаса «Бесполезное страдание…
Privationist theodicy and the doctrine of transcendentals
The article attempts to discover the natural boundaries of the privationist theodicy (privatio boni) in the light of the criticism against it in recent Russian periodical literature, that evil cannot be considered as pure non-being, since it exits within real being. I show that this criticism was known in the Western philosophical tradition and trace one of the most interesting answer to it, proposed by Francisco Suárez. Suárez gives parallel cla…
Multivalent truth, tolerance and the problem of justification of religious beliefs
Metaphysics of the cosmological argument and some possible tasks of theistic proofs
There is a prevailing view in the analytic philosophical theology that theistic proofs should be formulated without reference to whatsoever metaphysics, but only relying on the achievements of modern science, especially physics, highlighting its logical structure. The Cosmological argument deserved special attention among analytic theologians due to its seeming independence from medieval metaphysics and great variability: there were offered at le…

Epistemological Presuppositions for the Theistic Philosophy of A. Plantinga
The author attempts to reconstruct the context surrounding the projects for a reformed epistemology and an affi rmation of the Christian faith by Alvin Plantinga. An analysis of Plantinga’s epistemological presuppositions reveals how they are intertwined. The basic problem surrounding the dispute between fundamentalists and anti-fundamentalists concerning the nature of knowledge constituted the background against which the theistic philosophy of …
