Human, All Too Human, Part 10 summary

Part 10 of 152 · 1 min to read the part

In 10, the argument predicts that interest in purely theoretical metaphysical problems fades once religion, art and ethics become fully understandable without metaphysical assumptions. It places these activities within conception rather than cosmic essence, rejects intuition as a route beyond conception, and assigns the gap between our world picture and reality to scientific and historical inquiry.

What happens

  1. The argument makes declining interest in metaphysics depend on understanding religion, art and ethics without metaphysical assumptions.
  2. It places these activities within conception, not inquiry into the essence of the cosmos.
  3. It denies that intuition takes understanding beyond conception.
  4. It assigns differences between our world picture and reality to physiology and the evolutionary history of ideas and organisms.
