...the idea of God.

We have not
the slightest ground
absolutely
to admit the existence
of an object
corresponding to
this idea;
for what can empower
or authorize us
to affirm
the existence
of a being
of the highest
perfection —
a being
whose existence
is absolutely necessary —
merely because
we possess
the conception of
such a being?

The answer is:
It is the existence
of the world
which renders
this hypothesis
necessary.

But this answer
makes it perfectly
evident that
the idea of
this being,
like all other speculative ideas, is
essentially
nothing more
than a demand upon
reason
that it shall regulate
the connection which it
and its subordinate
faculties introduce into
the phenomena of
the world
by principles of
systematic unity
and, consequently,
that it shall regard
all phenomena as
originating from
one
all-embracing
being,
as the supreme
and
all-sufficient
cause.

Immanuel Kant, “The Critique of Pure Reason.”

Красиво.
Эпистемологическое доказательство существования бога.

Логично, конечно. Проблемы в головах, включая regulative priniciples. Ох.

С иллюзиями разума еще хуже, потому что прошлое моментально расплывается, если не зарегистрировать тут же. То, что мы помним - это, в основном, тоже иллюзия. Которая меняется во времени, и это изменение объясняется тем, что, мол, "теперь мне стало ясно".
