Revealed Religion and Enlightenment philosophy share one structural content despite apparent opposition

Evidence

Indeed, the divine sacrifice finds its ultimate conceptual expression in the Aufklärung’s philosophical categories. Reciprocally, modern philosophy would not have its own subject if God’s sacrifice had not occurred. The exposé of such a structural solidarity between the speculative content of Revealed Religion and the philosophical categories apparently excluded from such a content represents an aspect of Hegel’s thought at its most original and most difficult. — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 809

Categorization

• DEFINE: The ‘structural solidarity’ claim is a signature Malabou/Hegel move: the mutual construction of divine sacrifice and transcendental categories.
• DEEPTHINKING: ‘most original and most difficult’ — a dense, paradigm-level claim that philosophy’s own subject depends theologically on God’s sacrifice.
• XREF: connects to: Revealed Religion recapitulates logic’s concept-judgement-syllogism structure point for point — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel: Plasticity,…, 651; Critical philosophy secretly continues Protestantism’s religious consciousness — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel: Plasticity,…, 796; Enlightenment reason bowed to faith by declaring God unknowable — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel: Plasticity,…, 792 (+5 more)
