Blameworthiness, Love, and Strong Divine Sovereignty

In this paper, I explore some problems faced by those who endorse what I will call strong divine sovereignty (SDS). According to this view, every worldly event is guaranteed by God's causal activity. The first problem this view faces is that it seems to make God morally blameworthy. I explore s...

520 |a In this paper, I explore some problems faced by those who endorse what I will call strong divine sovereignty (SDS). According to this view, every worldly event is guaranteed by God's causal activity. The first problem this view faces is that it seems to make God morally blameworthy. I explore several possible ways for defenders of SDS to avoid this conclusion. Unfortunately, however, each of these solutions leaves another problem intact: if SDS is true, then it appears that God is not much like a loving parent, as many have thought. I explore a number of options to avoid this conclusion, arguing that some fail and others include significant costs.
