CRITICISM OF RELIGION OF «THE MAN WHO IS GOD» IN RUSSIAN RELIGIOUS PHILOSOPHY

The investigation of the Russian religious thought of XIX-XX centuries for common points of view on the sources of the spread of the religion of "the man who is God", as well as ways of spiritual struggle with this "disease" are presented in the article. It is emphasized that "the man who is God" is not a religion in the literal sense of the word, but rather one of the stages of the formation of atheistic worldview. Based on the study of the works of F.M. Dostoevsky, V.S. Soloviev, S.N. Bulgakov, S.L. Frank, N.. Berdyaev and B.P. Vysheslavtsev, the author highlighted three possible source of ideas "the man who is God": Western Christianity, the philosophical teachings of the past and the belief of the Russian intelligentsia in their own limitless possibilities. It is argued that the problem of the emergence of the mindset of man-God grows in Russian philosophers in the problem of the emergence of a special type of spirituality: S.N. Bulgakov comes to the conclusion that a person's feeling of being the Lord of being is the result of pride, and S.L. Frank believes that it is the result of an incorrect interpretation of the truths of Scripture. The difference in research approaches in relation to man's deification between N. Berdyaev and by B.P. Vysheslavtseva is described. It is emphasized that if N.A. Berdyaev is more interested in the consequences of this mindset and B.P. Vysheslavtsev showed scientific interest in the study of the process of implementation of the ideas of human skin, which received its manifestation in the "principle of Autonomous confrontation". The author reveals significant differences in solving the problem of the spread "the man who is God" between S.N. Bulgakov and S.L. Frank on one hand and N. Ah. Berdyaev and B.P. Vysheslavtsev on the other. It is noted that S.N. Bulgakov and S.L. Frank tend to more radical measures in relation to the religion of "the man who is God", rather than N. A. Berdyaev and B.P. Vysheslavtsev hold a more moderate position.
