IMMANUEL KANT'S PHILOSOPHY OF RELIGION

Nikola Skledar ; Institute of Applied Social Research, Zagreb, Croatia

Abstract

Kant's philosophy of religion is inseparably linked with his ontognoseological and ethic concepts. The author explains his concept of religion within the limits of the practical reason as well as his theoretical agnosticism. We can only have certain ideas and beliefs about the transcedental, God, immortality of the soul - they are solely the notion of the practical reason - but we cannot have any theoretical knowledge. The author shows how the absence of critical awareness about the possibility of rational cognition leads to various kinds of dogmatism.
