Immanuel Kant is a philosopher who extends his purview into religion. According to James, Kant believes that objects such as the belief in God, the soul, etc. are not true 'objects of knowledge.' In his view, Kant states that all conceptions require a 'sense-content' as a kind of base material with which to work. Kant asserts that objects such as belief in God or soul have no 'sense-content' and thus humans believe in something of which they can't form any notion. He calls his approach 'Ideas of Pure Reason.'
