Empirical intuition is therefore not a composition of phenomena and space (of perception and empty intuition). Every limited space is hence divisible to infinity. What then are time and space? In order fully to convince the reader of this certainty, we shall select a case which will serve to make its validity apparent, and also to illustrate what has been said in SS 3. Suppose, then, that space and time are in themselves objective, and conditions of the--possibility of objects as things in themselves. Thus space and time were the intelligible form of the connection of things (substances and their states) in themselves. For neither absolute nor relative determinations of objects can be intuited prior to the existence of the things to which they belong, and therefore not a priorI. (b) Space is nothing else than the form of all phenomena of the external sense, that is, the subjective condition of the sensibility, under which alone external intuition is possible. The attributes of necessity, infinitude, unity, existence apart from the world (and not as a world soul), eternity (free from conditions of time), omnipresence (free from conditions of space), omnipotence, and others, are pure transcendental predicates; and thus the accurate conception of a Supreme Being, which every theology requires, is furnished by transcendental theology alone. All this is easily applied to the present question, why a considerable distance in time produces a greater veneration for the distant objects than a like removal in space. In order to become informed on these points, we shall first give an exposition of the conception of space.
