  1. Modern moral reinterpretation of Jesus and its value to the philosophy of religion.Antoni Torzewski - 2019 - Argument: Biannual Philosophical Journal 9 (2):253-269.
    The moral reinterpretation of Jesus conducted by Kant, Lessing and Feuerbach, is an interesting matter when it comes to the philosophy of religion.

    In Religion within the Bounds of Bare Reason, Kant claims that we may need to invoke divine aid in order to explain how a person can change from evil to good. Kant’s language is a bit curious; why does he not more clearly assert, either that we must posit divine grace, or that we may not?
