Explaining and criticizing the philosophical faith of Carl Jaspers

Against religious faith Karl Jaspers uses the term philosophical faith and describes it in a negative way and says it cannot be a credo; its thinking is not dogmatic, not based on anything concrete and finite in the world; its essence is merely historical and cannot be anchored in the universal. Philosophical faith is forever immersed in a dialectical process of fusion and negation. Its principles, as follows: 1- God is. 2-There is an absolute imperative. 3- The reality of the world subsists ephemerally between God and existence. None of these principles are demonstrable and remain in the suspension of nonknowledge. Also reason is an essential element of philosophical faith and strengthens the relationship between humans for attainment truth; therefore, philosophical faith can be also called faith in communication. Finally, philosophical faith is man's faith to his potentialities. This article is written in a descriptiveanalytic method, explaining the pros and cons of this above-mentioned viewpoint.
