F&P

The April 2004 edition of Faith and Philosophy (journal of the Society of Christian Philosophers) arrived here yesterday. It looks interesting. There's an article about various positions cur Deus Homo, i.e., views about the purpose of the Incarnation. The biggest question in this, of course, is whether God would have become man had there been no sin. I've only looked briefly at it; it doesn't look like she really focuses on the only genuinely strong argument for the affirmative position (Scotus's argument from the predestination of Christ). There is also what looks like an interesting article contrasting Aquinas's and Aristotle's accounts of the virtue of magnanimity.
