Book excerpt: Flew considers the great Kantian issues of "God, freedom, and immortality." He takes a new look at the arguments for the existence of God and the question of religious belief, and examines the claim that our lives can have meaning only by assuming the existence of God and human immortality. Throughout, Flew cleaves to the agnostic principle that we ought always to proportion our belief to the evidence.

Book Synopsis Kant’s Moral Metaphysics by : Benjamin Bruxvoort Lipscomb
Download or read book Kant’s Moral Metaphysics written by Benjamin Bruxvoort Lipscomb and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2010-06-29 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Morality has traditionally been understood to be tied to certain metaphysical beliefs: notably, in the freedom of human persons (to choose right or wrong courses of action), in a god (or gods) who serve(s) as judge(s) of moral character, and in an afterlife as the locus of a “final judgment” on individual behavior. Some scholars read the history of moral philosophy as a gradual disentangling of our moral commitments from such beliefs. Kant is often given an important place in their narratives, despite the fact that Kant himself asserts that some of such beliefs are necessary (necessary, at least, from the practical point of view). Many contemporary neo-Kantian moral philosophers have embraced these “disentangling” narratives or, at any rate, have minimized the connection of Kant’s practical philosophy with controversial metaphysical commitments ‐ even with Kant’s transcendental idealism. This volume re-evaluates those interpretations. It is arguably the first collection to systematically explore the metaphysical commitments central to Kant’s practical philosophy, and thus the connections between Kantian ethics, his philosophy of religion, and his epistemological claims concerning our knowledge of the supersensible.

Book Synopsis Kant's Moral Metaphysics by : Benjamin J. Bruxvoort Lipscomb
Download or read book Kant's Moral Metaphysics written by Benjamin J. Bruxvoort Lipscomb and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2010 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent interpreters of Kant's philosophy and contemporary advocates of broadly neo-Kantian views generally minimize the importance of Kant's metaphysical beliefs. This volume re-evaluates these minimizing approaches with particular reference to Kant's moral philosophy, exploring Kantian positions on such topics as moral corruption, the relation between God and ethics, the metaphysics of human freedom, and the possibility of knowledge of God. This volume is the first to place these topics within the context of the Critical philosophy as a whole, encouraging not only a more metaphysical, but also a more holistic reading of Kant.
Book Synopsis Freedom and Immortality by : Ian T. Ramsey
Download or read book Freedom and Immortality written by Ian T. Ramsey and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2011-06-07 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These two key ideas in the Christian understanding of man are taken together because each makes the same sort of claim, appealing to a situation not restricted by what is observed in sense experience. This does not make reasonable talk about ideas any easier--in fact, Professor Ramsey constantly shows himself as aware of the charge that all talk about them is meaningless. In language free from jargon and with many opposite and amusing illustrations, the philosophy of this enjoyable book is of the kind to appeal to a generation grown weary of metaphysics, and it is successful in throwing new light on some very old problems. Here is a book by a leading Oxford philosopher written for a wide public.
Book Synopsis God, Freedom and the Immortality of the Soul by : Francine Baker
Download or read book God, Freedom and the Immortality of the Soul written by Francine Baker and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-04 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines and defends Immanuel Kant s arguments in the Critique of Pure Practical Reason that the ideas of freedom, the immortality of the soul and God are the source of moral laws and the postulates of moral action. It does this through an examination of Kant s analysis of the ordinary man s understanding of a moral judgment. This shows that these three ideas are in a practical sense, inseparably connected to the fundamental principle of morality. This book rejects standard objections to Kant s moral theory and argues that Kant s arguments for these three ideas as postulates of morality are sound. This has significant ramifications regarding the value of Kant s contribution to western moral and legal philosophy, and for its application in modern society.
Download or read book Yoga written by Mircea Eliade and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1958 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this landmark book the renowned scholar of religion Mircea Eliade lays the groundwork for a Western understanding of Yoga, exploring how its guiding principle, that of freedom, involves remaining in the world without letting oneself be exhausted by such "conditionings" as time and history. Drawing on years of study and experience in India, Eliade provides a comprehensive survey of Yoga in theory and practice from its earliest foreshadowings in the Vedas through the twentieth century. The subjects discussed include Patañjali, author of the Yoga-sutras; yogic techniques, such as concentration "on a Single Point," postures, and respiratory discipline; and Yoga in relation to Brahmanism, Buddhism, Tantrism, Oriental alchemy, mystical erotism, and shamanism.

In the Higlzer Pantneisfn, he treats of the ulti mate nature of reality, and of the rela tion of the finite to the Infinite - two of the most fundamental problems of meta physics. In In Memoriam, he meditates long and seriously upon the great prob lems of God and immortality; upon the mysterious realities of sin and suffering; upon the problems of knowledge, its origin, nature, reality, development, ex tent; its distinction from faith, almost unconsciously constructing a kind of phi losophy of life.

Download or read book Spinoza's Heresy written by Steven Nadler and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 2001-12-06 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the heart of Spinoza's Heresy is a mystery: why was Baruch Spinoza so harshly excommunicated from the Amsterdam Jewish community at the age of twenty-four? In this philosophical sequel to his acclaimed, award-winning biography of the seventeenth-century thinker, Steven Nadler argues that Spinoza's main offence was a denial of the immortality of the soul. But this only deepens the mystery. For there is no specific Jewish dogma regarding immortality: there is nothing that a Jew is required to believe about the soul and the afterlife. It was, however, for various religious, historical and political reasons, simply the wrong issue to pick on in Amsterdam in the 1650s. After considering the nature of the ban, or cherem, as a disciplinary tool in the Sephardic community, and a number of possible explanations for Spinoza's ban, Nadler turns to the variety of traditions in Jewish religious thought on the postmortem fate of a person's soul. This is followed by an examination of Spinoza's own views on the eternity of the mind and the role that that the denial of personal immortality plays in his overall philosophical project. Nadler argues that Spinoza's beliefs were not only an outgrowth of his own metaphysical principles, but also a culmination of an intellectualist trend in Jewish rationalism.

Book Synopsis An Introduction to Kant's Moral Philosophy by : Jennifer K. Uleman
Download or read book An Introduction to Kant's Moral Philosophy written by Jennifer K. Uleman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-21 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immanuel Kant's moral philosophy is one of the most distinctive achievements of the European Enlightenment. At its heart lies what Kant called the 'strange thing': the free, rational, human will. This introduction explores the basis of Kant's anti-naturalist, secular, humanist vision of the human good. Moving from a sketch of the Kantian will, with all its component parts and attributes, to Kant's canonical arguments for his categorical imperative, this introduction shows why Kant thought his moral law the best summary expression of both his own philosophical work on morality and his readers' deepest shared convictions about the good. Kant's central tenets, key arguments, and core values are presented in an accessible and engaging way, making this book ideal for anyone eager to explore the fundamentals of Kant's moral philosophy.
