According to Kant, which is NOT a problem with a theology based on the idea of purpose, finality in Nature?

    { 1 } - The teleological judgment of purpose in Nature involves an intellectual intuition of a limitless being revealed in limited forms.
    { 2 } - The physico-theological argument is based on empirical data, and the universe as a whole is not an empirical datum, so we could not refer the "scattered purposes" which we find in Nature to the unity of a common final end.
    { 3 } - Empirical evidence of design in Nature can bring us only to the concept of a designer, not the concept of a supreme cause of the existence of the universe.
    { 4 } - Empirical evidence of design in Nature cannot determine the moral attributes of a suprahuman designer.
    { 5 } - Reflection on organisms would not bring us to the concept of a divine wisdom which created the whole universe for one supreme final end.
    { 6 } - Empirical evidence of design in Nature cannot determine any attribute of a suprahuman designer except intelligence.
