Aristotle's Belief of Deity: A Speculation on Ethical Theology

並列摘要


In the most theoretical sense, Aristotle's "deity" characterizes the most miraculous and sublime existence, which transcends rational cognition and the practical ability of human beings. Therefore, the characteristic of Aristotle's belief in the divine is neither personified nor superstitious but rational. In his systematic knowledge, Aristotle actually establishes a subject called ethical theology which demonstrates the inosculation and consummation of deity and ethics. Further, Aristotle's ethical theology reveals the universal law which is supported by a continual force between perfect deity and imperfect human beings. Hence, in this ultimate state, the deity fulfills virtue to perfection and produces action by free will. Thus, Aristotle's theoretical conclusion, though it seems quite subjective as he reserves a dominant holy place for the deity, is neither idealistic nor superstitious. The theological elucidation of "devout action" in Aristotle's ethical theology raises awareness of the possible revision of traditional Chinese ethics, where humans exceed the deity's authority.
