Transcendental theology

Transcendental theology

Transcendental theology is a term coined by Immanuel Kant to describe a method of discerning theological concepts. Kant divided transcendental theology into "ontotheology" and "cosmotheology", both of which he also coined, "in order to distinguish between two competing types of 'transcendental theology'". [Thomson, Iain (2005): "Heidegger on Ontotheology: Technology and the Politics of Education", 7.]
