I present three versions of the argument from divine hiddenness that are grounded in moral considerations regarding how a just deity would act and auxiliary commitments that theists often have. First, I argue that the problem of hiddenness is made worse if one also holds that many will suffer in the afterlife due to not achieving a proper orientation towards God and the demands of morality in this life. Second, I argue that if any version of the moral argument for theism is successful, then God has a very good reason to not remain hidden. Third, I argue that a just God would not allow people to do evil in her name.

如何使神圣隐秘的问题更糟
我提出了神圣隐性论证的三个版本,它们基于关于正义神将如何行动以及有神论者经常具有的辅助承诺的道德考虑。首先,我认为,如果人们还认为,由于对上帝和今生的道德要求缺乏正确的认识,许多人将在来世遭受苦难,这将使隐藏的问题变得更加严重。第二,我认为,如果有神论的道德论证的任何版本成功,那么上帝就有很好的理由不被隐藏。第三,我认为公正的上帝不会允许人们以她的名义行恶。
