20.500.12556/RUL-164097 Who is to blame for the sinking ship? Aquinas on divine goodness, evil and freedom Koga kriviti za potapljajočo se ladjo? Tomaž Akvinski o božji dobroti, zlu in svobodi This paper presents the basic features of Aquinas’ theodicy, first indicating some difficulties regarding the problem of evil—or even attempts to implicate God in evil —that have emerged in the wake of scientific achievements, especially in the field of evolutionary biology. What is needed in response to these challenges is an appropriate view of God’s causality, which is analogous in character and does not constitute one of many causalities in the world. A correct understanding of the relationship between the First Cause and secondary causes sheds new light on the debate about the Creator’s responsibility for evil in the world. For Aquinas, God’s action is focused on the good of the whole, which is why the notion of integrity or rectitude, which was already present in Paradise, explains the accidental—not intentional—presence of evil in the world. Against that background, the paper explains God’s manner of responding to evil as interpreted by Thomas Aquinas, which consists in conquering evil with the greater good, its paradigm being the Incarnation. For a Christian, this is a model example of how a man can conquer evil by strengthening good and persisting in it through cooperation with grace. Prispevek prikazuje glavne značilnosti teodiceje Tomaža Akvinskega. Pri tem najprej izpostavlja nekatere težave pri vprašanju o zlu – ali celo poskuse povezovanja Boga z zlom –, ki so se pojavile v luči znanstvenih dosežkov – predvsem na področju evolucijske biologije. Kar je pri odgovarjanju na takšne izzive potrebno, je ustrezen pogled na božjo vzročnost, ki je analogičnega značaja in ne tvori le ene od številnih vzročnosti v svetu. Ustrezno razumevanje odnosa med Prvim in drugotnimi vzroki razpravo o Stvarnikovi odgovornosti za zlo na svetu osvetljuje na novo. Za Tomaža je božje delovanje osredotočeno na dobro kot celoto. Prav zato pojem integritete ali rectitudo, prisotne že v raju, dobro pojasnjuje prigodno (naključno) – in ne namerno – prisotnost zla v svetu. Na tej podlagi prispevek pojasnjuje božji način odzivanja na zlo, kot ga interpretira Tomaž, kar pomeni zmago nad zlom z večjim dobrim; paradigma tega načina je (Kristusovo) učlovečenje. Za kristjana je to zgled, kako lahko človek premaga zlo z okrepitvijo dobrega in vztrajanjem v njem ob sodelovanju z milostjo. theodicy original justice biblical thomism secondary causes teodiceja izvirna pravičnost biblijski tomizem drugotni vzroki true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2024-10-17 06:03:30 2024-10-17 06:03:30 2024-10-18 04:18:02 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2022 0 0 Str. 277-290 [št.] 2 Letn. 82 2022 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2022-01-01 27-184:111.84 0006-5722 10.34291/BV2022/02/Roszak 125899779 Roszak.pdf Roszak.pdf 1 35CA3B1524B9244497B732802DFCCC99 d177746fac1aaaaadfed0db53301a1786fb6820a1a88f905a9e6bf5e7d968052 84f81ccd-8c3c-11ef-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=194216 https://www.teof.uni-lj.si/zaloznistvo/bogoslovni-vestnik/bogoslovni-vestnik-82-2022-2 0 9ee82546-8c40-11ef-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=194225 Teološka fakulteta Bogoslovni vestnik 0 0 0
