Abstract
The idea for this issue began with an inquiry from Edmund N. Santurri to the Journal of Religious Ethics (JRE) coeditors. Santurri expressed interest in reaffirming the anti-dilemma position that he articulated in Perplexity in the Moral Life: Philosophical and Theological Considerations (1987) but with consideration of more recent scholarship on the topic. By contrast, Lisa Sowle Cahill and Kate Jackson-Meyer reaffirm and defend the plausibility of the moral dilemmas thesis articulated in their scholarship (see Cahill 2019 and Jackson-Meyer 2022). While these first two essays draw on resources from Christian ethics, Schillinger and coauthors Howard and Cates enrich the conversation by offering Islamic and Hindu insights that complicate Christian assumptions about moral dilemmas.
