According to Kant, the idea of God and immortality are :

  • A.Innate ideas
  • B.Objects of intuition
  • C.Ideas of reason
  • D.Ideas of imagination

Answer: C

The answer is Ideas of reason.

In the Critique of Pure Reason, Kant calls God, the soul (and with it immortality) and the world as a whole the ideas of pure reason. They arise from reason's demand for the unconditioned, but nothing in sensible intuition corresponds to them, so they cannot be known theoretically. In the Critique of Practical Reason God and immortality return as postulates of practical reason.

They are not innate ideas in Descartes' sense, not objects of intuition (Kant says we have no intuition of them), and not products of imagination, which for Kant works with sensible material.
