Zusammenfassung
Jonathan Kvanvig presents and defends a new theistic outlook--'Philosophical Arminianism'--which reconciles a traditional, high conception of deity with a conception of human beings as free and morally responsible. He offers a bold new account of eschatological matters (the doctrines of heaven and hell), and divine deliberation and creation.

Destiny and Deliberation by Jonathan L Kvanvig
Jonathan Kvanvig presents a compelling new work in philosophical theology on the universe, creation, and the afterlife. Organised thematically by the endpoints of time, the volume begins by addressing eschatological matters--the doctrines of heaven and hell--and ends with an account of divine deliberation and creation. Kvanvig develops a coherent theistic outlook which reconciles a traditional, high conception of deity, with full providential control over all aspects of creation, with a conception of human beings as free and morally responsible. The resulting position and defense is labeled "Philosophical Arminianism," and deserves attention in a broad range of religious traditions.
