Kant in the theological academies
pp. 83-105
Abstract
This chapter deals with how Kant fared in the higher educational institutions for Orthodox priests. Kant was viewed and criticized there for, among other things, his alleged subjectivism and agnosticism. Faculty in these theological academies rejected Kant's ethics as departing from Christian teaching not just with regard to revealed moral obligations to God, but particularly with regard to improving the lot of other human beings.
