The Moral Gap: Kantian Ethics, Human Limits, and God's

The Moral Gap: Kantian Ethics, Human Limits, and God's Assistance (Oxford Studies in Theological Ethics)

Is morality too difficult for human beings? Kant said that it was, except with God's assistance. Contemporary moral philosophers have usually discussed the question without reference to Christian doctrine, and have either diminished the moral demand, exaggerated human moral capacity, or tried to find a substitute in nature for God's assistance. This book looks at these philosophers--from Kant and Kierkegaard to Swinburne, Russell, and R.M. Hare--and the alternative in Christianity.
