Kant’s concept of “Universal Church” as a scheme of interfaith relations toleration: service of God as respect for the others
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue
Abstract
The author analyzes philosophical and religious aspects of Kant's work - the problem of modality of faith and theory of the “Universal Church”. Traditional Kant’s view of God as deism has been opposed to anthropological and personal study of Him as an alternative view to deism or atheism. The potential of philosophy and religious deduction of Kant concerning toleration of inter-ecclesiastical and inter-secular dialogue, and the potential of actual reformation of traditional churches activity have been proved.
