Sažetak
This article analyses relation between faith and intellect in the natural cogniton of God after the Vatican I (1869-1870). The Council has defined the ability of the human intellect (mind) for a natural cognition of God. Subsequent papal encyclical letters added that God can be comprehendend and proved by the natural light of intellect. The Council definition is based on the Bible: The Book of Wisdom, The Epistle to the Romans etc. The Vatican I believed (considered) that the natural cognition is to be defined de iure, but left open the question does it de facto happen.
Protestant theology, especially Karl Barth (1886-1968), based on biblical grounds, rejects any possibility of natural cognition, and not after a detailed gnoseological critique. We propose a different antropological interpretation of analogy. According to this the liberty in span between the limited and absolute reaches his primary analogate.
