Kant and Schelling have a similar portrayal of the organism,and they are confronted with a similar antino-my due to the contingent character of the organism.Kant and Schelling give different solutions to the contingency of the organism,which makes their theories of the organism ultimately different:the teleological principle that Kant finds for the organism to eliminate contingency will inevitably be in conflict with the mechanistic principle,and the"ends-means"unification scheme adopted by Kant cannot achieve the true unity of the two.The positive principle that Schelling gives to the organism to ensure contingency and the negative principle that represents necessity are al-so in conflict,but Schelling solves the conflict by maintaining this conflict in a way that not only defends the contin-gent character of the organism,but also ensures the process of development within the organic world,and achieves the real unity between the conflicting principles.
