Exaltation and atrocity: why kenotic humility can't justify divine concurrence of evil

‘Exaltation views' of humility are grounded on a kenotic view of humility, such that divine blessing comes proportionate to the extent to which an agent humbles herself. This article rejects exaltation views of humility which define humility kenotically, justify their arguments from a divine hi...

Περιγραφή
Σύνοψη:‘Exaltation views' of humility are grounded on a kenotic view of humility, such that divine blessing comes proportionate to the extent to which an agent humbles herself. This article rejects exaltation views of humility which define humility kenotically, justify their arguments from a divine hiddenness perspective, and which conclude that divine concurrence with evil is justified as long as all humble believers eventually are exalted and blessed. Rather, I will contend that exaltation views misunderstand the meaning of both ‘humility' and ‘exaltation,' even from their own Christian standpoint. I ultimately offer an alternate response to the problem of evil based on an existentially grounded conception of ‘humility' (a recognition of our need for others), which provides for a transmuted turn away from individual kenotic acts and toward community to transform those who suffer from atrocities.
