Richard Schaeffler is a contemporary German Christian philosopher, who is currently developing a new kind of transcendental philosophy. The paper focuses on the way he pursues thinking about God who, in his view, can be understood as "the freedom that sets one free". Schaeffler believes the designation is acceptable for both religion and philosophy. He is convinced that one can postulate a personal God philosophically in a post‑Kantian, revised version of transcendental philosophy. Religious experience demonstrates what is being postulated philosophically. The philosophical concept of God is therefore not empty, but instead answers the experience of religious man. The paper also reflects on the thought of the Czech philosopher Karel Říha. He also belongs to those authors who like Schaeffler have developed the transcendental method in a new way. They both join one line of thought, agree in many aspects and Říha has referred many times to Schaeffler´s works.
