## Falsafa

### Kai hari kan deism
A lokacin rayuwarsa da kuma shekaru da yawa bayan haka, Butler ya fi saninsa da *Analogy of Religion, Natural and Revealed* (1736), wanda a cewar masanin tarihi Will Durant "ya kasance har tsawon karni daya babban jigon hujjar Kirista game da rashin bangaskiya." Turawan Ingilishi irin su John Toland da Matthew Tindal sunyi jayayya cewa yanayi yana ba da tabbataccen shaida na haziƙi mai zane da fasaha, amma sunƙi kiristanci na al'ada saboda girman abin al'ajabi da zalunci da sabani da aka rubuta acikin Littafi Mai Tsarki.

Butler's *Analogy* yana ɗaya daga cikin yawancin amsoshin tsawon littafin ga masu lalata, kuma an daɗe ana jin shine mafi inganci. Butler yayi gardama cewa yanayin kanta cike take da asirai da zalunci don haka suna da lahani iri ɗaya da ake zargin Littafi Mai Tsarki. Da yake gardama akan dalilan empiriricism cewa duk ilimin yanayi da halayen ɗan adam abu ne mai yuwuwa kawai, Butler ya yi kira ga jerin alamu ("analogies") waɗanda ake iya lura da su acikin yanayi da al'amuran ɗan adam, waɗanda a ra'ayinsa yasa babban koyarwar Kiristanci mai yiwuwa.

Butler ya ce "saboda yanayi rikici ne na ka-cici-ka-cici, baza mu iya tsammanin wahayi ya zama mafi bayyane ba" A yau, Butler's *Analogy* shine "yanzu mafi yawan abubuwan tarihi," tare da kawai sashin da ake karantawa shine sashin wanda ke karantawa. yayi magana da sukar sa na ka'idar John Locke na ainihin mutum.

### Da'a da ilimin halin kirki

Wani masanin Butler, Stephen Darwall, ya rubuta: "Wataƙila babu wani adadi da ya fi Butler tasiri a falsafar ɗabi'a ta Biritaniya ta ƙarni na sha tara." Babban makasudin Butler a cikin *Wa'azin* shine Thomas Hobbes da ra'ayin girman kai game da yanayin ɗan adam da ya kare acikin *Leviathan* (1651). Hobbes ɗan jari-hujja ne wanda yayi imani cewa kimiyya tana bayyana duniyar da a cikinta aka ƙaddara dukan abubuwan da suka faru kuma acikinta ne duk zaɓin ɗan adam ke gudana ba tare da kauracewa daga duk abin da sha'awar ke da ƙarfi acikin mutum a wani lokaci. Hobbes ya ga ’yan Adam a matsayin masu tashin hankali, masu son kai, da masu son mulki. Irin wannan ra'ayi ba shi da wani wuri don sadaukarwa na gaske, alheri ko ra'ayi na ɗabi'a kamar yadda aka yi tunani a al'ada.

Acikin *Wa'azin*, Butler yayi jayayya cewa ƙwaƙƙwaran ɗan adam ba shi da son kai kuma ya fi rikitarwa fiye da da'awar Hobbes. Ya ci gaba da cewa tunanin ɗan adam tsari ne mai tsari na ɗimbin sha'awa da ƙa'idodi daban-daban, waɗanda yawancinsu ba su da son kai. Ƙasar ƙasa, don yin magana, tana ɗaukar nau'ikan ƙayyadaddun motsin rai, ci da sha'awa, kamar yunwa, fushi, tsoro da tausayi. Su, acikin tsararrun tunani, ana sarrafa su da ƙa'idodi guda biyu mafi girma: son kai (sha'awar haɓaka farin ciki na dogon lokaci) da kyautatawa (sha'awar haɓaka farin ciki gabaɗaya). Yawancin sha'awa na gaba ɗaya suna ƙarƙashin iko mafi girma acikin tunanin ɗan adam: lamiri na ɗabi'a. Lamiri, Butler ya yi iƙirari, ji ne na gaskiya da kuskure, haske na ciki da saka idanu, wanda aka karɓa daga wurin Allah. Lamiri yana gaya wa mutum don haɓɓaka farin ciki na gaba ɗaya da farin ciki na mutum. Kwarewa ta sanar da cewa burin biyun sun yi daidai da rayuwa ta yanzu. Don dalilai da yawa, Butler ya yi jayayya, mutane marasa da'a da son kai waɗanda ba su damu da komai don amfanin jama'a ba yawanci ba sa farin ciki sosai.

Akwai, duk da haka, lokuta da ba kasafai ba inda miyagu ke neman lokaci don ci gaba. Cikakken jituwa na nagarta da son kai, Butler ya yi iƙirari, Allah mai adalci ne kaɗai ya tabbatar da shi, wanda a lahira yake ba da lada kuma yana azabtar da mutane kamar yadda suka cancanta.

### Sukar Locke
A cikin Shafi na 1 na *Analogy*, Butler yana ba da sanannen sukar ka'idar John Locke mai tasiri na "zamanin sirri", bayanin abinda ya sa wani ya zama "mutum ɗaya" daga lokaci guda zuwa gaba, duk da canje-canje na jiki da na tunani. gogayya a tsawon wancan lokacin. Locke yayi iƙirarin cewa ainihin mutum ba daga samun jiki ɗaya ko rai ɗaya ba ne amma daga samun sani da ƙwaƙwalwa iri ɗaya. A cewar Locke, ƙwaƙwalwar ajiya ita ce "manne" wanda ke haɗa matakai daban-daban na rayuwarmu tare kuma ya zama kamancen mutum. Wannan sashe na *Analogy* shine kawai ɓangaren karantawa a yau.

Daidai daidai, Locke yayi iƙirarin, Mutum A mutum ɗaya ne da Mutum B kawai a yanayin da A da B ke raba aƙalla wasu abubuwan tunawa iri ɗaya. Butler yace hanyar da za'a iya bambanta tunanin "hakikanin" da na ƙarya shine mutanen da suka sami abubuwan da ake tunawa da gaske. Don haka, Butler yayi iƙirari, ƙwaƙwalwar ajiya tana ƙaddamar da ainihin mutum don hakaba zai iya zama ta ba.
