Abstract

In this paper, the "pure rational religion within the boundaries of" Analysis of the argument was that Kant religion as part of the contents of the form of two - a rational and empirical content of the content; the former is the moral core of religion, the latter who is used to carry or show the moral core of the religious cloak. Kant stressed that true religion must be a combination of the two; for the people, morality and religion are indispensable: to leave the moral core, only the cloak of religion as a religion of all content, will go to religious delusions; and leave religious expression, that morality can provide practical reason, the ultimate purpose of all the conditions, it is moral fanaticism. Kant, these two trends of thought and practice have been criticized. Based on this understanding of Kant's religious thought, this paper re-examines Kant as the abolition of religious independence, its based around the moral view that such a view does not meet Kant's views on the relationship of morality and religion , which is the wrong understanding.
