defense of his own bleaker view of the universe. Second, Goodin seems by and large to want to keep the Christian part of Schweitzer’s thought separate from its philosophical expression (183). But is this sustainable? As Barsam attempted to show in the monograph to which Goodin refers, Schweitzer is desperate to show that “reverence for life” is a necessity of thought; and yet that is precisely what it is not, whatever other virtues it may have. It was Barsam’s contention that it only becomes that because Schweitzer believes in the transformative value of the will-tolove, understood as Christ. This point is never explicitly made by Schweitzer (how could it be, given what he says about the necessarily compelling nature of his ideas?), though it is there in the Paul book in particular. Barsam simply asserts that it is a necessary element if Schweitzer’s thought is to be made complete. Goodin no doubt has opinions on this thesis; and however one assesses it, it raises acute questions about the integrated nature of Schweitzer’s thought, of the relationship of biblical theology to philosophy, which remains a perennial concern of anyone interested in Albert Schweitzer’s work and life, as Goodin, in this stimulating book, shows in a different way.

捍卫自己对宇宙的悲观看法。其次,古丁似乎大体上希望将施魏策思想的基督教部分与其哲学表达分开(183)。但这是可持续的吗?正如巴尔萨姆试图在古丁提到的专着中表明的那样,施魏策尔不顾一切地表明“对生命的敬畏”是思想的必要条件;然而,这正是它所不具备的,不管它可能有其他什么美德。Barsam 的论点是,这只是因为 Schweitzer 相信被理解为基督的爱的意志的变革价值。Schweitzer 从未明确提出这一点(考虑到他所说的关于他的想法必然引人注目的性质,这怎么可能?),尽管特别是在保罗书中。Barsam 只是断言,如果要使 Schweitzer 的思想完整,它是一个必要元素。古丁无疑对这篇论文有意见;无论人们如何评估它,它都提出了关于施韦泽思想的综合性质、圣经神学与哲学的关系的尖锐问题,这仍然是任何对阿尔伯特施韦泽的工作和生活感兴趣的人长期关注的问题,正如古丁,在这本令人振奋的书中,以不同的方式显示。
