"Tthe supreme being remains, a simple but nevertheless flawless ideal, a concept that encompasses and crowns the whole of human knowledge", argues, among others, the German philosopher Immanuel Kant in the "Critique of Pure Reason", making use of physical theological, cosmological and ontological evidence for the existence of God. That is, he firmly believed that Philosophy will replace the role once played by Religion. God, therefore, for Kant is not a Transcendent Being but a transcendent Ideal of Pure Reason that transcends the limits of aesthetic experience.
"What Socrates was to the ancient philosophical thought, Kant is to the modern one! A unique landmark at its height. And they divide ancient philosophy into three chapters: pre-Socratic, Socratic, post-Socratic; the new into three more: pre-Kantian, Kantian, post-Kantian."
