Abstract


What is the relation between ethics, happiness and God? Immanuel Kant has
a web of arguments explaining their intertwined relations in his well known
works. This body of arguments laid an intellectual bridge between philosophy
and theology. God is understood as 1) a moral unit who ensures the absolute
autonomy of human conscience, as well as 2) guarantee the foundation of
morality or the ultimate meaning of morality. Yet, this kind of God is
named by Kant as postulate, meaning that the existence is to be accepted
unconditionally or needless to prove it otherwise. In Fakta der Vernunft, KpV,
A 289, Kant named it as the fact of reason. This means that for human
beings, ethics, happiness and God are to be accepted beyond any doubt (as
in the case of a fact). On the other hand, they should not be considered as
an empirical constancy, as to be able to be finger-pointed, however as a result
of a conclusion of a work of human practical reason along with his or her
moral effort.
