Edited with Stephen R. Palmquist

Kant and the New Philosophy of Religion

The anthology that named the 'affirmative' reading of Kant on religion.

Fourteen scholars, including John Hare, Philip Rossi, Ronald Green, and Leslie Stevenson, make the case that Kant's philosophy of religion is not morality in disguise but a resource in its own right. The volume is organized in three parts (philosophical foundations, theological applications, religious instantiations) and includes Firestone's essay 'Making Sense Out of Tradition: Theology and Conflict in Kant's Philosophy of Religion.' A companion symposium issue of Philosophia Christi (9:1, 2007), which Firestone guest-edited, continued the debate.
