Of the many attempts to interpret Christianity solely in ethical terms. Kant's effort seems to me to be most profound and illuminating. His Religion Within the Limits of Reason Alone illuminates primarily the great philoso pher's understanding of man's moral life, but also pasts light, indirectly and directly, on some of the fundamental beliefs of Christian religion. The book is indispensable to students of ethics, important for theologians, and signi ficant for all who are concerned about the human condition." H. RICHARD NIEBUHR "One of the most interesting and most human of Kant's works. Although Kant speaks in the language of the Eighteenth Century, he is wrestling with problems which force themselves on us today unless we dismiss all religion as pathological or swallow it blindly at the behest of some external authority -H. J. PATON "Kant interprets the whole history of Christianity as a gradual advance frem a religion of revelation to a religion of reason. It is the most advanced expression of the Christian faith for the very reason that it elintinates the Irrational presupposition of faith and grace." -KARL LÖWITH, in Meaning in One does not have to agree with Kant's conclusions and I do not-ins and to acknowledge this as a great work in the history of philosophical thealogy. It is the product of Kant's mature years, an effort to connect his relligless thought with the rest of his epoch-making philosophy as presented in his three Critiques" -MORTON WHITE 200.8 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 200.8 Kan r E91002963 Non Fiction 200.8 Kan r Religion.jpg 49947 2014-12-11 08:36:43 2024-11-07 16:55:26 machine generated
