Description
Summary:The conflict between Luther and Erasmus about the freedom of the will is rooted in differing views of human being. Recent philosophical debates about the freedom of the will take note of neuroscientific research into brain activity, research which affects how we understand the human capacity for understanding and the formation of acts of will. This essay brings the results of this interdisciplinary discussion into conversation with reformational theology. In a reformational view of human being, it is important to attend to the ground of existence on which both the capacity for understanding and the action of the will depend. Freedom in a reformational sense will be defined as appreciation or affirmation of human being. This should be significant for interdisciplinary discourse.
