Inculpable

Drange considers the distinction between reasonable (by which Schellenberg means inculpable) and unreasonable (culpable) nonbelief to be irrelevant and confusing.

He asserts that there are relatively few criticisms questioning the existence of inculpable nonbelief, and almost no theistic philosopher objects to the idea that God is perfectly loving.

In an article revisiting the argument ten years after it was originally proposed, citation Schellenberg observes that criticism has mainly centered around the idea that God would prevent inculpable nonbelief.
