Hi pog
Respect to you for taking on this very worthwhile task. I’ll chip in when I can. Here’s a couple of entries:
convinced universalist
Hick, John (1922-2012) English theologian and philosopher. “In wrestling with the problem of evil I had concluded that any viable Christian theodicy must affirm the ultimate salvation of all God’s creatures.” (Evil and the Love of God)
hopeful universalist
Farrer, Austin (1904-1968) English theologian and philosopher, chaplain of Trinity College, Oxford. “Cannot everlasting mercy save from the everlasting fire or let the irreconcilable perish in it?” (Saving Belief)
I too would switch the title of the thread. If nothing else, a lot of Universalists do not deny the existence of ‘hell’ in some senses. How about something positive, along the lines of “list of people who affirm the truth of Universalism, or allow the possibility of it being true”. That’s a horrible clunker obviously, but I’m sure you or somebody here can come up with something more succinct!
Cheers
Johnny
