What was Augustine's privation view?
As Jacob noted, Augustine's view of evil as a privation of the good is just that: of view of evil, not necessarily a view about sin, though the two are related. The Reformed maintained the Augustinian view of evil as a privation of the good. If one denies this, then he becomes a dualist, which is anti-Christian.What are the dominant theories in contemporary reformed thought concerning the nature (or lack thereof) of sin/sinfulness in contrast to Augustine's privation view?
