About this title

Synopsis

Applying the new perspectival method of interpreting Kant he expounded in earlier works, Palmquist examine a broad range of Kant's philosophical writings to present a fresh view of his thought on theology, religion, and religious experience. He defends a number of innovative theses, including how religious and theological themes form the backbone of Kant's mature philosophical system, how his treatment of organized religion provides the basis for a living and symbolic form of religious practice compatible with the core teachings of Christianity, and how the claims of mystics and others to have experiences of God are philosophically justifiable provided they are viewed solely from a judicial standpoint.
