Abstract (2. Language): 
Discussions about the justification of having religious be-liefs have been continued since the beginning of the history of phi-losophy. The roles of evidence and the will in belief have been dis-cussed under the title of “The Ethics of Belief”. John Locke also addressed to evidentialism in his works. Considering to construct his epistemology and belief on the strictest basis, Locke argued that believing something on insufficient evidence or failing to pro-portion our degree of belief according to the strength of the evi-dence is a transgression against our endowed light.

Abstract (Original Language): 
İnsanın inanç oluştururken geçtiği safhaların epistemik yön-den doğrulanabilirliği konusundaki tartışmalar düşünce tarihinin ilk zamanlarından bu yana devam ede gelmiştir. İnanç elde ederken deliller ve iradenin ne kadar rolün olduğu veya olması gerektiği ko-nuları “İnanç Ahlakı” başlığı altında tartışılmaktadır. Delilcilik (evidentialism) konusundaki tartışmalara John Locke’un eserlerin-de de rastlanmaktadır. Epistemolojisini ve dolayısıyla da inanç an-layışını olabildiğince sağlam bir temele oturtmak isteyen Locke, ye-tersiz delile binaen bir şeye inanmayı veya inancımızı elimizdeki delillerin gücüne göre orantılı tutmamayı bize verilen yetilere karşı bir hakaret olduğunu söylemiştir. Akıl ve inanç arasından kesin bir ayrım yapan Locke, aklın doğal bir vahiy, vahyin de ilahi bir akıl ol-duğunu ve inanç konusunda aklın rehberliğinin şart olduğunu söy-lemiştir.
