在牛顿研究中,上帝与空间的关系是一个重要而持久的问题。柯瓦雷认为牛顿对上帝与空间的关系所持的观点与摩尔的观点具有相当的一致性。牛顿手稿《论重力》的发现使这一观点需要得到重新考察,麦圭尔与卡列罗分别提出了两种具有代表性的观点,然而他们的解释并未成功建立上帝与空间观念的融贯性。尽管如此,从牛顿本人哲学与神学方面的思想背景来看,《论重力》中两个关于空间的论题与其神学及上帝观念是一致的,空间并不在任何积极意义上规定甚至限制上帝的实存,因此在牛顿的语境中其论证是合理的。
In Newton’s study, the relationship between God and space is an important and enduring issue. Kovaler believed that Newton’s view of God’s relationship to space was quite congruent with that of Moore. The discovery of Newton’s Manuscript on Gravity has necessitated a reexamination of this view. Two of the representative ideas were proposed by McGuire and Carrilo, respectively, but their explanations did not succeed in establishing coherence between God and space Sex. Nevertheless, from Newton’s own philosophical and theological backgrounds, the two topics on space in On Gravity are consistent with their theology and the concept of God, and space does not in any positive sense prescribe or even limit the reality of God , So its justification is reasonable in Newton’s context.
