'''Augustinianism''' (or '''Augustinism''') is the philosophical school that arose as a legacy of the work and thought of the 4th-century philosopher [[Augustine of Hippo]]
According to his contemporary, [[Jerome]], Augustine "established anew the ancient Faith".<ref group=lower-alpha>[[Jerome]] wrote to Augustine in 418: "You are known throughout the world; Catholics honour and esteem you as the one who has established anew the ancient Faith" (''conditor antiquae rursum fidei''). Cf. [http://www.augustinus.it/latino/lettere/lettera_200_testo.htm Epistola 195]; {{cite book |title= Augustine the Theologian |last=TeSelle |first=Eugene |year=1970 |location= London |page=343 |isbn=978-0-223-97728-0}} March 2002 edition: {{ISBN|1-57910-918-7}}.</ref>, his book ''[[The City of God]]'' is one of the most influential documents in [[medieval philosophy]] and is a cornerstone of Western thought, expounding on many profound questions of theology, such as the suffering of the righteous, the [[Problem_of_evil|existence of evil]], the conflict between [[free will]] and divine omniscience, and the doctrine of [[original sin]].
[[Pope Benedict XVI]] cautioned that all of the [[Western Church]] teaching leads to him:
{{quote|St Augustine. This man of passion and faith, of the highest intelligence and tireless in his pastoral care, a great Saint and Doctor of the Church is often known, at least by hearsay, even by those who ignore Christianity or who are not familiar with it, because he left a very deep mark on the cultural life of the West and on the whole world. Because of his special importance St Augustine's influence was widespread. It could be said on the one hand that all the roads of Latin Christian literature led to Hippo (today Annaba, on the coast of Algeria), the place where he was Bishop from 395 to his death in 430, and, on the other, that from this city of Roman Africa, many other roads of later Christianity and of Western culture itself branched out.<ref>[http://w2.vatican.va/content/benedict-xvi/en/audiences/2008/documents/hf_ben-xvi_aud_20080109.html BENEDICT XVI GENERAL AUDIENCE Paul VI Audience Hall Wednesday, 9 January 2008]</ref>}}
Historian [[Diarmaid MacCulloch]] has written: "[Augustine's] impact on Western Christian thought can hardly be overstated; only his beloved example [[Paul the Apostle|Paul of Tarsus]], has been more influential, and [[Latins (Middle Ages)|Westerners]] have generally seen Paul through Augustine's eyes."<ref name="MacCulloch2010">{{cite book|author=Diarmaid MacCulloch|title=A History of Christianity: The First Three Thousand Years|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=u1eTZKpJVS4C&pg=PT319|year=2010|publisher=Penguin Books |isbn=978-0-14-102189-8|page=319}}</ref>

[[File:Gerard Seghers (attr) - The Four Doctors of the Western Church, Saint Augustine of Hippo (354–430).jpg|thumb|''The Four Doctors of the Western Church'', Saint Augustine of Hippo (354–430), [[Gerard Seghers]] ]]
Augustinism developed in opposition to the [[Pelagianism]] of [[Pelagius]].<ref>[https://www.biblicalcyclopedia.com/A/augustinism.html Augustinism]</ref> "Augustine considered the human race as a compact mass, a collective body, responsible in its unity and solidarity. Carrying out his system in all its logical consequences, he laid down the following rigid proposition as his doctrine: 'As all men have sinned in [[Adam]]; they are subject to the condemnation of [[God in Christianity|God]] on account of this hereditary sin and the guilt thereof'"<ref>Smith's Hagenbach, History of Doctrines, 1, 299</ref><ref>Wiggers Augustinisnm and Pelagianism, p. 268</ref>
According to Augustine, even the world and corporeal entities, being fruits of [[divine love]], have their value and meaning, while the some Platonists tended instead to devalue them. <ref>Tina Manferdini, ''Comunicazione ed estetica in Sant'Agostino'', p. 249, Bologna, ESD, 1995</ref> This attempt to place history and earthly existence within a heavenly perspective, where even evil finds explanation in some way, always remained at the center of its philosophical concerns.
== Theodicy ==
=== Problem of evil ===
{{Main|Augustinian theodicy}}
The problem of evil is the question of how to reconcile the existence of [[evil]] with an [[Omnipotence|omnipotent]], [[Omnibenevolence|omnibenevolent]], and [[Omniscience|omniscient]] [[God]].<ref name="Stanford">The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, "[https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/evil The Problem of Evil]", Michael Tooley</ref><ref name="IepEvidential">The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy, "[https://www.iep.utm.edu/e/evil-evi.htm The Evidential Problem of Evil]", Nick Trakakis</ref>
Augustine develop key ideas regarding his response to suffering. In ''[[Confessions of Saint Augustine|Confessions]]'', Augustine wrote that his previous work was dominated by [[materialism]] and that reading the works of [[Plato]] enabled him to consider the existence of a non-physical [[substance theory|substance]]. This helped him develop a response to the problem of evil from a theological (and non-Manichean) perspective,<ref>{{cite web | url=http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/augustine/#OntEud | title=Saint Augustine |work=Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy | origyear=24 March 2000 |date=12 November 2010 | accessdate=9 October 2011 | author=Mendelson, Michael}}</ref>
Augustine proposed that evil could not exist within God, nor be created by God, and is instead a by-product of God's creativity.<ref>Menn 2002, p. 168</ref> He rejected the notion that evil exists in itself, proposing instead that it is a privation of (or falling away from) good, and a corruption of nature.<ref name="Menn">Menn 2002, p. 170</ref> He wrote that "evil has no positive nature; but the loss of good has received the name 'evil.'"<ref>''The City of God'', Augustine of Hippo, Book XI, Chapter 9</ref> Both moral and [[natural evil]] occurs, Augustine argued, owing to an evil use of free will,<ref name=Bennett2008>Bennett, Peters, Hewlett & Russell 2008, p. 126</ref> which could be traced back to the original sin of [[Adam and Eve]].<ref name=Svendsen&Pierce2010>Svendsen & Pierce 2010, p. 49</ref> He believed that this evil will, present in the [[soul|human soul]], was a corruption of the will given to humans by God, making suffering a just punishment for the sin of humans.<ref>Menn 2002, p. 174</ref> Because Augustine believed that all of humanity was "[[Preformationism|seminally present in the loins of Adam]]", he argued that all of humanity inherited Adam's sin and his just punishment.<ref>Bennett, Peters, Hewlett & Russell 2008, p. 127</ref> However, in spite of his belief that free will can be turned to evil, Augustine maintained that it is vital for humans to have free will, because they could not live well without it. He argued that evil could come from humans because, although humans contained no evil, they were also not perfectly good and hence could be corrupted.<ref>Menn 2002, p. 176</ref>
== Ethics ==
{{Catholic philosophy}}
=== Divine command theory ===
{{Main|Divine command theory}}
Augustine offered the [[Divine command theory]], a theory which proposes that an action's status as [[Morality|morally]] [[good]] is equivalent to whether it is commanded by [[God]].<ref>{{cite book | title=Divine Commands and Morality | publisher=Oxford University Press | year=1981 | author=Helm, Paul | isbn=0-19-875049-8}}</ref><ref>{{cite book | title=Platonistic And Disenchanting Theories of Ethics | publisher=Peter Lang | year=2007 | author=Chandler, Hugh | isbn=978-0-8204-8858-5}}</ref>Augustine's theory began by casting ethics as the pursuit of the supreme good, which delivers human happiness, Augustine argued that to achieve this happiness, humans must love objects that are worthy of human love in the correct manner; this requires humans to love God, which then allows them to correctly love that which is worthy of being loved. Augustine's ethics proposed that the act of loving God enables humans to properly orient their loves, leading to human happiness and fulfilment.<ref name=IEP-2>{{cite web | url=http://www.iep.utm.edu/divine-c/#H2 | title=Divine Command Theory | publisher=Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy | date=21 August 2006 | accessdate=15 August 2012 | author=Austin, Michael W.}}</ref>
as an Neoplatonist, Augustine supported [[Plato|Plato's]] view that a well-ordered soul is a desirable consequence of morality. However, unlike Plato, he believed that achieving a well-ordered soul had a higher purpose: living in accordance with God's commands. His view of morality was thus heteronomous, as he believed in deference to a higher authority (God), rather than acting [[autonomy#Philosophy|autonomously]].<ref>Connolly, Keller, Leever & White 2009, p. 24</ref>
=== Divine illumination ===
{{Main|Divine illumination}}
Augustine emphasised the role of [[divine illumination]] in our thought, saying that "The mind needs to be enlightened by light from outside itself, so that it can participate in truth, because it is not itself the nature of truth. You will light my lamp, Lord,"<ref>''Confessions'' IV.xv.25</ref>
For Augustine, God does not give us certain information, but rather gives us insight into the truth of the information we received for ourselves.
:If we both see that what you say is true, and we both see that what I say is true, then where do we see that? Not I in you, nor you in me, but both of us in that unalterable truth that is above our minds.<ref>''Confessions'' XII.xxv.35</ref>
=== Just war theory ===
{{Main|Just war theory }}
The [[Just war theory]] is a doctrine that ensure [[war]] is morally justifiable through a series of criteria, all of which must be met for a war to be considered just. based upon [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans+13%3A4 Romans 13:4] Augustine claimed that, while individuals should not resort immediately to violence, God has given the sword to government for good reason. Augustine argues that [[Christians]], as part of a government, need not be ashamed of protecting peace and punishing wickedness when forced to do so by a government. Augustine asserted that this was a personal, philosophical stance: "What is here required is not a bodily action, but an inward disposition. The sacred seat of virtue is the heart."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2001/septemberweb-only/9-17-55.0.html|title=A Time For War?|author=Robert L.

=== Original sin ===
{{Main|Original sin}}
[[File:Michelangelo Buonarroti 022.jpg|thumb|upright=2|[[Michelangelo]]'s painting of the sin of Adam and Eve from the [[Sistine Chapel ceiling]]]]
Augustine wrote that original sin is transmitted by [[concupiscence]] and enfeebles freedom of the will without destroying it.<ref>{{cite book

He thought it was a most subtle job to discern what came first: self-centeredness or failure in seeing truth. Augustine wrote to [[Julian of Eclanum]]: ''Sed si disputatione subtilissima et elimatissima opus est, ut sciamus utrum primos homines insipientia superbos, an insipientes superbia fecerit'' (''Contra Julianum'', V, 4.18; PL 44, 795). This particular sin would not have taken place if [[Satan]] had not sown into their senses "the root of evil" (''radix Mali''): ''Nisi radicem mali humanus tunc reciperet sensus'' (''Contra Julianum'', I, 9.42; PL 44, 670)</ref> is transmitted by [[concupiscence]], or "hurtful desire",<ref>[http://www.talentshare.org/~mm9n/articles/sindeath/3.htm "Original Sin"]. ''Biblical Apologetic Studies''. Retrieved 17 May 2014. Augustine of Hippo (354–430) taught that Adam's sin is transmitted by concupiscence, or "hurtful desire", sexual desire and all sensual feelings resulting in humanity becoming a massa damnata (mass of perdition, condemned crowd), with much enfeebled, though not destroyed, freedom of will.</ref><ref>William Nicholson.

Retrieved 17 May 2014.</ref> resulting in humanity becoming a ''massa damnata'' (mass of perdition, condemned crowd), with much enfeebled, though not destroyed, freedom of will. When Adam sinned, human nature was thenceforth transformed. Adam and Eve, via sexual reproduction, recreated human nature. Their descendants now live in sin, in the form of concupiscence, a term Augustine used in a [[Metaphysics|metaphysical]], not a [[Psychology|psychological]] sense.<ref>[[Thomas Aquinas]] explained Augustine's doctrine pointing out that the ''libido'' (''concupiscence''), which makes the original sin pass from parents to children, is not a ''libido actualis'', i.e. sexual lust, but ''libido habitualis'', i.e. a wound of the whole of human nature: ''Libido quae transmittit peccatum originale in prolem, non est libido actualis, quia dato quod virtute divina concederetur alicui quod nullam inordinatam libidinem in actu generationis sentiret, adhuc transmitteret in prolem originale peccatum. Sed libido illa est intelligenda habitualiter, secundum quod appetitus sensitivus non continetur sub ratione vinculo originalis iustitiae. Et talis libido in omnibus est aequalis'' (STh Iª–IIae q. 82 a. 4 ad 3).</ref> Augustine insisted that concupiscence was not ''a being'' but a ''bad quality'', the [[privation of good]] or a wound.<ref>''Non substantialiter manere concupiscentiam, sicut corpus aliquod aut spiritum; sed esse affectionem quamdam malae qualitatis, sicut est languor''. (''De nuptiis et concupiscentia'', I, 25. 28; PL 44, 430; cf. ''Contra Julianum'', VI, 18.53; PL 44, 854; ibid. VI, 19.58; PL 44, 857; ibid., II, 10.33; PL 44, 697; ''Contra Secundinum Manichaeum'', 15; PL 42, 590.</ref> He admitted that sexual concupiscence (''libido'') might have been present in the perfect human nature in [[paradise]], and that only later it became disobedient to human will as a result of the first couple's disobedience to God's will in the original sin.<ref>Augustine wrote to [[Julian of Eclanum]]: ''Quis enim negat futurum fuisse concubitum, etiamsi peccatum non praecessisset? Sed futurus fuerat, sicut aliis membris, ita etiam genitalibus voluntate motis, non libidine concitatis; aut certe etiam ipsa libidine – ut non vos de illa nimium contristemus – non qualis nunc est, sed ad nutum voluntarium serviente'' (Contra Julianum, IV. 11. 57; PL 44, 766). See also his late work: ''Contra secundam Iuliani responsionem imperfectum opus'', II, 42; PL 45,1160; ibid. II, 45; PL 45,1161; ibid., VI, 22; PL 45, 1550–1551.

Une théologie baptismale de la vie conjugale|last=Schmitt|first=É.|year=1983|series =Études Augustiniennes| location=Paris|page=104}}</ref> In Augustine's view (termed "Realism"), all of humanity was really present in Adam when he sinned, and therefore all have sinned. Original sin, according to Augustine, consists of the guilt of Adam which all humans inherit. Justo Gonzalez interprets Augustine's teaching that humans are utterly depraved in nature and grace is [[irresistible grace|irresistible]], results in conversion, and leads to [[perseverance of the saints|perseverance]].<ref name="Gonzalez">{{cite book|author=Justo L.

Augustine's understanding of the consequences of original sin and the necessity of redeeming grace was developed in the struggle against [[Pelagius]] and his [[Pelagianism|Pelagian]] disciples, [[Caelestius]] and [[Julian of Eclanum]],<ref name="Gonzalez"/> who had been inspired by [[Rufinus of Syria]], a disciple of [[Theodore of Mopsuestia]].<ref>[[Marius Mercator]] ''Lib. subnot.in verb.

+Augustinism developed in opposition to the [[Pelagianism]] of [[Pelagius]].<ref>[https://www.biblicalcyclopedia.com/A/augustinism.html Augustinism]</ref> "Augustine considered the human race as a compact mass, a collective body, responsible in its unity and solidarity. Carrying out his system in all its logical consequences, he laid down the following rigid proposition as his doctrine: 'As all men have sinned in [[Adam]]; they are subject to the condemnation of [[God in Christianity|God]] on account of this hereditary sin and the guilt thereof'"<ref>Smith's Hagenbach, History of Doctrines, 1, 299</ref><ref>Wiggers Augustinisnm and Pelagianism, p. 268</ref>
+
+According to Augustine, even the world and corporeal entities, being fruits of [[divine love]], have their value and meaning, while the some Platonists tended instead to devalue them. <ref>Tina Manferdini, ''Comunicazione ed estetica in Sant'Agostino'', p. 249, Bologna, ESD, 1995</ref> This attempt to place history and earthly existence within a heavenly perspective, where even evil finds explanation in some way, always remained at the center of its philosophical concerns.

+{{Main|Augustinian theodicy}}
+The problem of evil is the question of how to reconcile the existence of [[evil]] with an [[Omnipotence|omnipotent]], [[Omnibenevolence|omnibenevolent]], and [[Omniscience|omniscient]] [[God]].<ref name="Stanford">The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, "[https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/evil The Problem of Evil]", Michael Tooley</ref><ref name="IepEvidential">The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy, "[https://www.iep.utm.edu/e/evil-evi.htm The Evidential Problem of Evil]", Nick Trakakis</ref>
+
+Augustine develop key ideas regarding his response to suffering. In ''[[Confessions of Saint Augustine|Confessions]]'', Augustine wrote that his previous work was dominated by [[materialism]] and that reading the works of [[Plato]] enabled him to consider the existence of a non-physical [[substance theory|substance]]. This helped him develop a response to the problem of evil from a theological (and non-Manichean) perspective,<ref>{{cite web | url=http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/augustine/#OntEud | title=Saint Augustine |work=Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy | origyear=24 March 2000 |date=12 November 2010 | accessdate=9 October 2011 | author=Mendelson, Michael}}</ref>
+
+Augustine proposed that evil could not exist within God, nor be created by God, and is instead a by-product of God's creativity.<ref>Menn 2002, p. 168</ref> He rejected the notion that evil exists in itself, proposing instead that it is a privation of (or falling away from) good, and a corruption of nature.<ref name="Menn">Menn 2002, p. 170</ref> He wrote that "evil has no positive nature; but the loss of good has received the name 'evil.'"<ref>''The City of God'', Augustine of Hippo, Book XI, Chapter 9</ref> Both moral and [[natural evil]] occurs, Augustine argued, owing to an evil use of free will,<ref name=Bennett2008>Bennett, Peters, Hewlett & Russell 2008, p. 126</ref> which could be traced back to the original sin of [[Adam and Eve]].<ref name=Svendsen&Pierce2010>Svendsen & Pierce 2010, p. 49</ref> He believed that this evil will, present in the [[soul|human soul]], was a corruption of the will given to humans by God, making suffering a just punishment for the sin of humans.<ref>Menn 2002, p. 174</ref> Because Augustine believed that all of humanity was "[[Preformationism|seminally present in the loins of Adam]]", he argued that all of humanity inherited Adam's sin and his just punishment.<ref>Bennett, Peters, Hewlett & Russell 2008, p. 127</ref> However, in spite of his belief that free will can be turned to evil, Augustine maintained that it is vital for humans to have free will, because they could not live well without it. He argued that evil could come from humans because, although humans contained no evil, they were also not perfectly good and hence could be corrupted.<ref>Menn 2002, p. 176</ref>

+== Ethics ==
+{{Catholic philosophy}}
+=== Divine command theory ===
+{{Main|Divine command theory}}
+Augustine offered the [[Divine command theory]], a theory which proposes that an action's status as [[Morality|morally]] [[good]] is equivalent to whether it is commanded by [[God]].<ref>{{cite book | title=Divine Commands and Morality | publisher=Oxford University Press | year=1981 | author=Helm, Paul | isbn=0-19-875049-8}}</ref><ref>{{cite book | title=Platonistic And Disenchanting Theories of Ethics | publisher=Peter Lang | year=2007 | author=Chandler, Hugh | isbn=978-0-8204-8858-5}}</ref>Augustine's theory began by casting ethics as the pursuit of the supreme good, which delivers human happiness, Augustine argued that to achieve this happiness, humans must love objects that are worthy of human love in the correct manner; this requires humans to love God, which then allows them to correctly love that which is worthy of being loved. Augustine's ethics proposed that the act of loving God enables humans to properly orient their loves, leading to human happiness and fulfilment.<ref name=IEP-2>{{cite web | url=http://www.iep.utm.edu/divine-c/#H2 | title=Divine Command Theory | publisher=Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy | date=21 August 2006 | accessdate=15 August 2012 | author=Austin, Michael W.}}</ref>
+
+as an Neoplatonist, Augustine supported [[Plato|Plato's]] view that a well-ordered soul is a desirable consequence of morality. However, unlike Plato, he believed that achieving a well-ordered soul had a higher purpose: living in accordance with God's commands. His view of morality was thus heteronomous, as he believed in deference to a higher authority (God), rather than acting [[autonomy#Philosophy|autonomously]].<ref>Connolly, Keller, Leever & White 2009, p. 24</ref>
+=== Divine illumination ===
+{{Main|Divine illumination}}
+Augustine emphasised the role of [[divine illumination]] in our thought, saying that "The mind needs to be enlightened by light from outside itself, so that it can participate in truth, because it is not itself the nature of truth. You will light my lamp, Lord,"<ref>''Confessions'' IV.xv.25</ref>
+
+For Augustine, God does not give us certain information, but rather gives us insight into the truth of the information we received for ourselves.
+
+:If we both see that what you say is true, and we both see that what I say is true, then where do we see that? Not I in you, nor you in me, but both of us in that unalterable truth that is above our minds.<ref>''Confessions'' XII.xxv.35</ref>

Augustine argues that [[Christians]], as part of a government, need not be ashamed of protecting peace and punishing wickedness when forced to do so by a government. Augustine asserted that this was a personal, philosophical stance: "What is here required is not a bodily action, but an inward disposition. The sacred seat of virtue is the heart."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2001/septemberweb-only/9-17-55.0.html|title=A Time For War?|author=Robert L.

When Adam sinned, human nature was thenceforth transformed. Adam and Eve, via sexual reproduction, recreated human nature. Their descendants now live in sin, in the form of concupiscence, a term Augustine used in a [[Metaphysics|metaphysical]], not a [[Psychology|psychological]] sense.<ref>[[Thomas Aquinas]] explained Augustine's doctrine pointing out that the ''libido'' (''concupiscence''), which makes the original sin pass from parents to children, is not a ''libido actualis'', i.e. sexual lust, but ''libido habitualis'', i.e. a wound of the whole of human nature: ''Libido quae transmittit peccatum originale in prolem, non est libido actualis, quia dato quod virtute divina concederetur alicui quod nullam inordinatam libidinem in actu generationis sentiret, adhuc transmitteret in prolem originale peccatum. Sed libido illa est intelligenda habitualiter, secundum quod appetitus sensitivus non continetur sub ratione vinculo originalis iustitiae. Et talis libido in omnibus est aequalis'' (STh Iª–IIae q. 82 a. 4 ad 3).</ref> Augustine insisted that concupiscence was not ''a being'' but a ''bad quality'', the [[privation of good]] or a wound.<ref>''Non substantialiter manere concupiscentiam, sicut corpus aliquod aut spiritum; sed esse affectionem quamdam malae qualitatis, sicut est languor''.

Sed futurus fuerat, sicut aliis membris, ita etiam genitalibus voluntate motis, non libidine concitatis; aut certe etiam ipsa libidine – ut non vos de illa nimium contristemus – non qualis nunc est, sed ad nutum voluntarium serviente'' (Contra Julianum, IV. 11. 57; PL 44, 766).

When Adam sinned, human nature was thenceforth transformed. Adam and Eve, via sexual reproduction, recreated human nature. Their descendants now live in sin, in the form of concupiscence, a term Augustine used in a [[Metaphysics|metaphysical]], not a [[Psychology|psychological]] sense.<ref>[[Thomas Aquinas]] explained Augustine's doctrine pointing out that the ''libido'' (''concupiscence''), which makes the original sin pass from parents to children, is not a ''libido actualis'', i.e. sexual lust, but ''libido habitualis'', i.e. a wound of the whole of human nature: ''Libido quae transmittit peccatum originale in prolem, non est libido actualis, quia dato quod virtute divina concederetur alicui quod nullam inordinatam libidinem in actu generationis sentiret, adhuc transmitteret in prolem originale peccatum. Sed libido illa est intelligenda habitualiter, secundum quod appetitus sensitivus non continetur sub ratione vinculo originalis iustitiae. Et talis libido in omnibus est aequalis'' (STh Iª–IIae q. 82 a. 4 ad 3).</ref> Augustine insisted that concupiscence was not ''a being'' but a ''bad quality'', the [[privation of good]] or a wound.<ref>''Non substantialiter manere concupiscentiam, sicut corpus aliquod aut spiritum; sed esse affectionem quamdam malae qualitatis, sicut est languor''.

Sed futurus fuerat, sicut aliis membris, ita etiam genitalibus voluntate motis, non libidine concitatis; aut certe etiam ipsa libidine – ut non vos de illa nimium contristemus – non qualis nunc est, sed ad nutum voluntarium serviente'' (Contra Julianum, IV. 11. 57; PL 44, 766).

Carrying out his system in all its logical consequences, he laid down the following rigid proposition as his doctrine: 'As all men have sinned in <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Adam" title="Adam">Adam</a>; they are subject to the condemnation of <a href="/enwiki/wiki/God_in_Christianity" title="God in Christianity">God</a> on account of this hereditary sin and the guilt thereof'"<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5">[4]</a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6">[5]</a></sup>
</p><p>According to Augustine, even the world and corporeal entities, being fruits of <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Divine_love" class="mw-redirect" title="Divine love">divine love</a>, have their value and meaning, while the some Platonists tended instead to devalue them. <sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7">[6]</a></sup> This attempt to place history and earthly existence within a heavenly perspective, where even evil finds explanation in some way, always remained at the center of its philosophical concerns.

Augustine's ethics proposed that the act of loving God enables humans to properly orient their loves, leading to human happiness and fulfilment.<sup id="cite_ref-IEP-2_21-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-IEP-2-21">[20]</a></sup>
</p><p>as an Neoplatonist, Augustine supported <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Plato" title="Plato">Plato's</a> view that a well-ordered soul is a desirable consequence of morality. However, unlike Plato, he believed that achieving a well-ordered soul had a higher purpose: living in accordance with God's commands.

<p>Augustine wrote that original sin is transmitted by <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Concupiscence" title="Concupiscence">concupiscence</a> and enfeebles freedom of the will without destroying it.<sup id="cite_ref-27" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-27">[26]</a></sup> For Augustine, Adam's sin<sup id="cite_ref-28" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-28">[27]</a></sup> is transmitted by <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Concupiscence" title="Concupiscence">concupiscence</a>, or "hurtful desire",<sup id="cite_ref-29" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-29">[28]</a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-30" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-30">[29]</a></sup> resulting in humanity becoming a <i>massa damnata</i> (mass of perdition, condemned crowd), with much enfeebled, though not destroyed, freedom of will. When Adam sinned, human nature was thenceforth transformed. Adam and Eve, via sexual reproduction, recreated human nature. Their descendants now live in sin, in the form of concupiscence, a term Augustine used in a <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Metaphysics" title="Metaphysics">metaphysical</a>, not a <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Psychology" title="Psychology">psychological</a> sense.<sup id="cite_ref-31" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-31">[30]</a></sup> Augustine insisted that concupiscence was not <i>a being</i> but a <i>bad quality</i>, the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Privation_of_good" class="mw-redirect" title="Privation of good">privation of good</a> or a wound.<sup id="cite_ref-32" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-32">[31]</a></sup> He admitted that sexual concupiscence (<i>libido</i>) might have been present in the perfect human nature in <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Paradise" title="Paradise">paradise</a>, and that only later it became disobedient to human will as a result of the first couple's disobedience to God's will in the original sin.<sup id="cite_ref-33" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-33">[32]</a></sup> In Augustine's view (termed "Realism"), all of humanity was really present in Adam when he sinned, and therefore all have sinned. Original sin, according to Augustine, consists of the guilt of Adam which all humans inherit. Justo Gonzalez interprets Augustine's teaching that humans are utterly depraved in nature and grace is <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Irresistible_grace" title="Irresistible grace">irresistible</a>, results in conversion, and leads to <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Perseverance_of_the_saints" title="Perseverance of the saints">perseverance</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Gonzalez_34-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gonzalez-34">[33]</a></sup>
