Abstract
Wieczne potępienie jest pierwszą konsekwencją
grzechu pierworodnego. Tę prawdę Kościół
potwierdzał przez stulecia, wydając w tej materii
jednoznaczne orzeczenia, które do dzisiaj
zachowują swoją ważność. Nauczanie Synodu
w Kartaginie (411), mówiące wprost o wiecznym
potępieniu ludzi zmarłych w grzechu,
potwierdzają kolejne synody, sobory i współczesne
dokumenty Kościoła. Taka jest też nauka
Katechizmu. Zasadniczym problemem jest
fakt, że Magisterium wiąże nauczanie o grzechu
pierworodnym z nienaukową prawdą o pochodzeniu
człowieka obecną na kartach Biblii.
Jednocześnie nauka o grzechu pierworodnym
jest koniecznym fundamentem przepowiadania
o zbawieniu. Konflikt (a przynajmniej napięcie)
pomiędzy nauką a wiarą jest oczywisty, a czynione
próby wydają się nie dostrzegać istoty problemu
albo problem ten bagatelizować. Trudno jednak uzasadnić, że grzech pierworodny jest
skutkiem przewinienia jednej ludzkiej pary. Konieczna
jest więc debata na temat rzeczywistości
„grzechu pierworodnego” i uzgodnienie jego
rozumienia ze współczesnym stanem wiedzy,
zwłaszcza w perspektywie możliwego wiecznego
potępienia wszystkich niezbawionych.
The eternal damnation is the first consequence of original sin. This truth has been confirmed by the Church through centuries, issuing unequivocal judgments in this matter, which remain valid until today. The teaching of the synod in Carthage (411), which speaks directly of the eternal condemnation of people who died in original sin, is confirmed by successive synods, councils and contemporary documents of the Church. This is also the teaching of the Catechism. The fundamental problem is that Magisterium links the teaching of original sin with the unscientific truth about human origins present on the pages of the Bible. At the same time, learning about original sin is the indispensable basis for the preaching of salvation. The conflict (or at least the tension) between science and faith is obvious, and the attempts made do not seem to notice the essence of the problem or it is treated in a banal way. It is difficult to justify, however, that it is the result of the offence of one human couple. Therefore, it is necessary to debate the reality of „original sin“ and to reconcile it with the modern state of knowledge.
