Abstract
Aim. To reveal some aspects of the religious and philosophical views of the German thinker Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, which are entirely rooted in his logic.
Methodology. The corpus of texts has been analyzed. The main content of the study is the analysis of the works of the philosopher and his followers. The following methods were used: problematic and descriptive analytics of specific primary sources in the context of Hegel’s beliefs and views. Logical laws in Hegel’s system are identified with the general laws of being. All this constitutes a characteristic 1feature of Hegelian philosophy.
Results. Based on the results of the study, it was concluded that Hegel’s religious philosophy is the same logic, only expressed in different terms. Incited by Christian doctrine, he makes attempts to elucidate religious issues from the point of view of his system, and along this path approaches the theistic worldview. In his philosophical writings, Hegel expounds in great detail the speculative meaning of the main Christian dogmas.
Research implication. The study of the religious views of the German Hegel presupposes the further development of religious and philosophical knowledge of the beginning of the 19th century. His views in Russia have become a source of inspiration for many people: from students to university professors. The information obtained will help in understanding the philosopher’s influence on the religious thought of Russia.
