Костельника щодо об’єктивності моральних законів та їх значення для розвитку людини.ud(Printed works and unpublished manuscripts of Gabriel Kostelnyk (1886-1948), Ukrainian priest and philosopher,udare analyzed. His views on moral concepts and problems are presented for the first time. Arguments of G.Kostelnykudabout the objectivity of moral laws and their implications for human development are presented.udPhilosopher’s interpretation of concepts of «inner man», «the perfect man», «natural person», «natural or innateudintuition» is clarified. His understanding of the mechanisms which lead to formation of different types of humanudcharacters and differences in attitudes is described. The main thought of the philosopher is that everyone creates hisudown inner life and affects his happiness.udKostelnyk rehabilitated the authority of the human nature. Philosopher considered natural for a man to distinguishudhuman beauty, to care about eternity, to show love to neighbor. He said that implementation of evangelical moral laws should be understood not as a penance but as deification, exaltation of man to God. In his view, the natural moral world of a man is defined by the laws: honor God and do not do to another person that you do not like for yourself. Kostelnyk concluded that God is actually appraised our moral efforts to counter temptations. Philosopher emphasized that moral laws are not a human creature but are the natural immanent laws of the human soul, the laws of human destiny.udThe main points of his study on contrasts in the world and in life are outlined. He believes that domination ofudaltruistic tendencies in the game of contrasts for harmony in the moral life is necessary. Imagery and accuracy of theudphilosopher in the theme of patience and sacrifice are shown; they must accompany spiritual growth.udThe basic idea of the ethical concept of G.Kostelnyk is that people are students of the Creator, the Earth is the schooludwhere one may learn on contrasts, may compete, grow spiritually, looking for God, approach to God by following the natural moral laws or degrade neglecting them.)
