Immanuel Kant's stature in the history of Western philosophy is commensurate to Plato and Aristotle, but in stressing that we do not possess the cognitive power to attain quasi-divine knowledge, he created a system that inevitably gave rise to the secularization of modern society. Kant has often been considered a modern archenemy of Christianity—and many Christians have accepted outdated misinterpretations of his work without going back to the sources or consulting recent academic literature. Writing firmly in the Reformed tradition, philosophy professor Shao Kai Tseng presents a reinterpretation and critical appreciation of Kant's thought.
