Mortalismong Kristiyano
Ang mortalismong Kristiyano ay ang paniniwala ng mga Kristiyano na hindi likas ang kaluluwa ng tao na imortal[1][2][3][4][5] at maaaring kabilang ang paniniwala na "natutulog" ang kaluluwa pagkatapos ng kamatayan hanggang sa Muling Pagkabuhay ng mga Patay at ang Huling Paghuhukom,[6][7][8][9][10] isang panahon na kilala bilang katayuang intermediya. Kadalasaang ginagamit na mapanira ang katawagang "pagtulog ng kaluluwa",[11][14][15] kaya mas nyutral ang katawagang "mortalismo" na ginamit din noong ikalabinsiyam na dantaon,[16] at "mortalismong Kristiyano" mula noong dekada 1970.[17][18][19][20][4][21][22] Sa kasaysayan, ginamit din ang katawagang sikopannikismo, sa kabila ng mga problema sa etimolohiya [24][25] at aplikasyon.[26] Ginamit din ang katawagang etnetopsikismo; halimbawa, tinukoy ni Gordon Campbell (2008) si John Milton na naniniwala sa huling nabanggit.[27]
Ang mortalismo Kristiyano ay kabaligtaran sa tradisyonal na paniniwalang Kristiyano na tumutungo agad ang mga kaluluwa ng mga patay agad sa langit, o impiyerno, o (sa Katolisismo) purgatoryo. Itinuro ang mortalismong Kristiyano ng ilang mga teologo at organisasyon ng simbahan sa buong kasaysayan habang nahaharap din sa pagsalungat mula sa mga aspeto ng organisadong relihiyong Kristiyano. Kinondena ng Simbahang Katoliko ang gayong pag-iisip sa Ikalimang Konseho ng Letran bilang "maling mga pahayag". Kasama sa mga tagasuporta ang ika-labingwalong dantaon na relihiyosong pigura na si Henry Layton, bukod sa marami pang iba.
Etimolohiya at terminolohiya
baguhinDahil hindi makikita ang mga pariralang "pagtulog ng kaluluwa" o "kamatayan ng kaluluwa" sa Bibliya o sa mga unang materyal na Patristika, kailangan ng paliwanag para sa pinagmulan ng termino. Bilang karagdagan, maraming iba pang mga katawgan ang ipinakilala na nauugnay sa pananaw.
Pagtulog ng kaluluwa
baguhinLumilitaw na ang pariralang pagtulog ng kaluluwa ay pinasikat ni John Calvin sa subtitulo ng kanyang polyetong Latin na Psychopannychia [Psychopannychia (manuskrito), Orléans, 1534{{citation}}
: CS1 maint: date auto-translated (link), Psychopannychia (imprenta) (sa wikang Latin), Strasbourg, 1542{{citation}}
: CS1 maint: date auto-translated (link), Psychopannychia (sa wikang Pranses) (ika-2 (na) edisyon), Hinebra, 1558{{citation}}
: CS1 maint: date auto-translated (link) (1545), Psychopannychia, 1581{{citation}}
: CS1 maint: date auto-translated (link)]. Nagmula ang pamagat ng librito sa Griyegong psyche (kaluluwa, isip) na may pan-nychis (παν-νυχίς, magdamag na pagbabantay, magdamag na piging),[28][29] kaya ang Psychopannychia, orihinal na kumakatawan sa pananaw ni Calvin na ang mulat at aktibo ang kaluluwa pagkatapos ng kamatayan.
Ang pamagat at subtitulo ng unang edisyong Estrasburgo ng 1542 ay mababasa na:Vivere apud Christum non-dormire animas sanctas qui in fide Christi decedunt. Assertio. [Na ang banal na kaluluwa ng mga namatay sa pananampalataya kay Kristo ay namumuhay kasama si Kristo at hindi natutulog. Isang paninidigan.] (sa wikang Latin).[11]
Iba pang mga katawagan
baguhin- "Sikopannikismo" - Sa Latin, mas malinaw na ang Psychopannychia ay aktwal na pagpapabulaan ng, ang kabaligtaran ng, ang ideya ng pagtulog ng kaluluwa. Ang bersyon ng Psychopannychie – La nuit ou le sommeil de l'âme [Sikopannikiya – ang gabi o ang pagtulog ng kaluluwa] (sa wikang Pranses), Hinebra, 1558
{{citation}}
: CS1 maint: date auto-translated (link), ay maaaring nagdulot ng kalituhan na ang ibig sabihin ng -pannychis ni Calvin ay pagtulog (sa Griyego -hypnos, tulog, hindi -pannychis, pagbabantay).[30] Ang subtitulong le sommeil de l'âme (sa wikang Pranses) ay kinuha bilang Seelenschlaf [Pagtulog ng kaluluwa] (sa wikang Aleman).[31] Unang lumabas ang polyeto sa Ingles bilang An excellent treatise of the Immortalytie of the Soule, sinalin ni Stocker, T., London, 1581{{citation}}
: CS1 maint: date auto-translated (link) (Isang sanaysay ng Imortalidad ng Kaluluwa).
- Ang "Hipnosikismo" – mula sa hypno- + psyche ("pagtulog ng kaluluwa") ay isang mas tamang bansag mula sa Griyego kaysa sa patungot ni Calvin. Tinuligsa ni Eustratio ng Konstantinopla (pagkatapos ng 582) ang mortalismo bilang isang maling pananampalataya gamit ang katawgang ito.
- "Etnetopsikismo" - Ang isang posibleng magkasalungat na parirala ay (mula sa Greek thnetos [mortal] + psyche [kaluluwa, isip]). [32] Ang katawgan ay nagmula sa mga paglalarawan nina Eusebio ng Caesarea at Juan ng Damasco ng mga mortalistang pananaw sa mga Kristiyanong Arabo.[33][34]
Mga argumento ng mortalista
baguhinSa kasaysayan, ang mga mortalistang Kristiyano ay may mga maunlad na mga argumentong teolohiko, leksikal, at siyentipiko bilang suporta sa kanilang posisyon.[35]
Mga argumentong teolohiko
baguhinAng mga argumentong teolohiko na nagsasaad na ang patuloy na pag-iral ng kaluluwa ay hindi itinuro sa Bibliya ay ginawa ng mga mortalista tulad nina Francis Blackburne,[35] Joseph Priestley,[36] at Samuel Bourne.[37] Ang mga mortalista na gaya ni Richard Overton ay nagsulong ng kumbinasyon ng teolohiko at pilosopikal na mga argumento na pabor sa pagtulog ng kaluluwa.[38] Ginawa rin ni Thomas Hobbes ang malawakang paggamit ng teolohikong argumentasyon.[39] Itinuring ng ilang mortalista ang kanilang mga paniniwala bilang pagbabalik sa orihinal na turong Kristiyano.[40][41] Ginamit din ang mga teolohikong argumento ng mga mortalista upang labanan ang doktrinang Katoliko ng purgatoryo at mga misa para sa mga patay.[42][43][10]
Mga argumentong leksikal
baguhinNoong huling bahagi ng ikalabing walong dantaon, ang karaniwang leksiko at balarilang Hebreo ni John Parkhurst[44] ay nagpahayag ng pananaw na ang tradisyonal na salin ng salitang Hebreo na nephesh bilang pagtukoy sa isang imortal na kaluluwa, ay walang leksikal na suporta.[45] Ang mga mortal noong ikalabinsiyam na dantaon ay gumamit ng mga leksikal na argumento upang tanggihan ang tradisyonal na mga doktrina ng impiyerno at ang imortal na kaluluwa.[46][47]
Mga argumentong pang-agham
baguhinAng ika-labing walong dantaong mortalista na si Henry Layton ay nagpakita ng mga argumento batay sa pisyolohiya.[10] Ang mga siyentipikong argumento ay naging mahalaga sa ikalabinsiyam na dantaong talakayan tungkol sa pagtulog ng kaluluwa at natural na imortalidad,[48] at ang mortalistang si Miles Grant ay binanggit nang husto mula sa ilang siyentipiko na nakapansin na ang imortalidad ng kaluluwa ay hindi sinusuportahan ng siyentipikong ebidensya.[47]

The notion of the soul of man being a substance distinct from the body, has been shown, and I hope to satisfaction, not to have been known to the writers of the scriptures, and especially those of the Old Testament. According to the uniform system of revelation, all our hopes of a future life are built upon another, and I may say an opposite foundation, viz. that of the resurrection of something belonging to us that dies, and is buried, that is, the body, which is always considered as the man. This doctrine is manifestly superfluous on the idea of the soul being a substance so distinct from the body as to be unaffected by its death, and able to subsist, and even to be more free and happy, without the body. This opinion, therefore, not having been known to the Jews, and being repugnant to the scheme of revelation, must have had its source in heathenism, but with respect to the date of its appearance, and the manner of its introduction, there is room for conjecture and speculation.

Drawing heavily on the theology and biblical hermeneutics of Faustus Socinus and his various disciples, Hobbes denied that the Bible gave any sanction for belief in the existence of spirits, the immortality of the soul, the Trinity, purgatory, or hell; and he contended that Christ's Second Coming would bring resurrection of the dead, the establishment of God's kingdom in the Holy Land, and – for the righteous alone – eternal life on earth. In the new Hobbsesian dispensation, the faithful had a permanent stake in technological progress, while the infidel had nothing to fear after being raised from the dead other than the dreamless sleep that would come with a second and permanent cessation of life.

Both the Socinians and Newton were also mortalists who saw the teaching of the immortal soul, like the Trinity, as an unwarranted and unscriptural obtrusion upon primitive Christianity. Since Newton's manuscripts only occasionally discuss the intermediate state between death and resurrection, it is difficult to ascertain whether he adhered to mortalism of the psychopannychist (soul sleep) or thnetopsychist (soul death, with eternal life given at the resurrection) variety. The latter position was that of both the Socinians and John Locke.

Priestley summarized his mature religious views in the Corruptions. He wanted to restore the early, primitive Jewish church, one uncorrupted by Greek and pagan ideas. The two great corruptions (he actually listed hundreds of corruptions in both beliefs and forms of worship) involved two noxious and related doctrines – the Greek concept of a separate soul or spirit, and the orthodox doctrine of the trinity. Priestley wanted to restore the corporealism or materialism of the ancient Jews, a materialism he believed essential to any mature religion.

The acceptance of organic evolution had helped theology by opening up the possibility of extending the process beyond death but had created a difficult at the beginning. The usual assumption has been that animals are mortal, men immortal. At what point then in the evolutionary process did immortality enter?… We are confronted thus with the problem of conditional immortality. Henry Drummond said that life depends on correspondence with the environment. The human body needs food, drink and oxygen to breathe. But if the body is gone and the environment is spiritual what correspondence can there be on the part of one who has lived only for the needs and lusts of the body?
