摘要
“不可知论”一词由赫胥黎于1869年提出。为了回应形而上学学会中的争论,他创造了这一术语以表明自己的哲学立场。赫胥黎的不可知论是对康德批判哲学的继承和挪用,是一种以知识的局限性为核心的认识论。这也是它不同于斯宾塞的综合哲学、孔德的实证主义、19世纪的唯物主义和无神论等的主要原因,赫胥黎由此将自己和这些哲学思想区别开来。赫胥黎的不可知论与宗教之间的关系复杂,不能用简化的“冲突模式”来描述和解释。
In response to issues raised by the Metaphysical Society,Huxley coined the term agnosticism in 1869 to show his philosophical position.He adapted and appropriated the Kantian critical philosophy to his own purpose and then established agnosticism which emphasizes the limits of knowledge.This is exactly the reason why it is different from Spencer’s synthetic philosophy,Comte’s positivism,materialism and atheism in the 19th century.The relationship between Huxley’s agnosticism and religion is complicated,and it cannot be described by the simplistic conflict thesis.
