Donald D. Evans
Donald Dwight Evans (born September 21, 1927 in Thunder Bay, Ontario) is a Canadian educator, psychotherapist and spiritual counsellor.
He obtained a B.A. from the University of Toronto in 1950, following which he earned a B.Phil. from Oxford University and a B.D. from McGill University. He was ordained as a pastor in the United Church of Canada in 1955. He was a professor of divinity at McGill from 1960 to 1964 (during which time he received a D.Phil. from Oxford), an associate professor of philosophy from 1964 to 1968 and full professor from 1968 until 1993.
In his early work, his ''The Logic of Self-Involvement'' (1963), Evans finds the meaning of religion within language. In his later works, his 1980 ''Faith, Authenticity, and Morality'' and his 1981 ''Struggle and Fulfillment,'' Evans finds the basis of religious belief in religious experience〔''Language, Experience and the life well-lived: a review of the work of Donald Evans'', Religious Studies Review, Vol. 9, No. 1. January 1983, pp. 33-41〕
==Indignant compassion==
Indignant compassion is experienced by both believers and non-believers in God. It is a common identification with the suffering of others. The prominent idea is that both believers and non-believers grieve and rebel against suffering. To explain this term, Evans gives two fictional atheists--Dostoievsky's Ivan Karamazov and Camus's Dr. Bernard Rieux--as examples of those whose "compassion is compounded with a sense of outrage and revulsion that nature and men should inflict mental and physical toruture on human beings." Evans also quotes D. M. Mackinnon's ''Christian Faith and Communist Faith'' (1953) "the man who revolts, determined somehow to affirm in this most desperate situation that God did not so make the world, is met by the mystery of God's own revolt against the world He made." According to Evans, a belief in a God of indignant compassion means a belief in a God who suffers, which is what Bonhoeffer illustrates when—during his incarceration in a Nazi prison—he wrote "Christians stand by God in his hour of grieving." 〔''Science and Religion'', Ian Barbour, Harper Forum Books (Harper & Row), 1968, pp. 106-107〕
