Teleology and Theology

Because there have been two distinct reasons for the Modern repudiation of Aristotelian Teleological Causality, there have been two distinct Modern corrections to it.  One has pertained to interaction between objects, on Empiricist grounds, i. e. the denial of a Causality that occurs subsequent to a sensible event.  The other has pertained to the conatus of the Human species, on Theological grounds, i. e. the denial of the existence of a divine realm located beyond the periphery of the Earth.  A significant difference between the two is that the former is methodologically based, while the latter is replaced by a proposition with no methodological basis.  The proposition is the existence of an incorporeal realm that is absolutely segregated from the physical realm, and is now the location of many concepts of the Medieval deity.  Because of the absolute segregation, there is no Theological Causality between them even possible.  As a result, Kant recognizes only actual Efficient Causality and a heuristic Causality that originates in the non-Physical realm, exercising a heuristic Causality that is sometimes Efficient, sometimes Teleological.
