This article concentrates on Kant’s supreme good theory to study how to may, the supreme good is the wish of every rational being is not only, also is the ultimate goal of Kant’s moral philosophy. This article is trying to traditional good under the background of theory, expound the supreme good could come in Kant’s moral philosophy.The main idea of this article is based on Kant’s supreme good thought background theory traces, understand the theory of Kant’s supreme good, and the motives of Kant’s supreme good ideas put forward. Secondly expounds the supreme good is put forward in the field of practical reason, the meaning of the good and the problems of practical reason.Through to the traceability of the theory of supreme good, generally can be divided into two ideas, one is the perceptual, is a kind of rationalism. Late in the enlightenment, people’s understanding of good secularized continuously, the result is, to become more and more is seen as unreliable and nothingness. And some philosophers from above the person’s feeling good, but the perceptual world is protean, development to the extreme will become the debauchery and enjoyment of the body. So, Kant put forward on the basis of the exclusion of perceptual desire to establish precedence of virtue, and then ask for happiness to match with your virtue. But as a result of both morality and happiness is completely different, although belong to a good subject, but even in the theory of mutually exclusive, hence the antinomy of practical reason. Kant’s solution is to divide the phenomenon and thing itself, which hung on the approaches to realize the supreme good, free will, immortal soul and god has for the realization of the good.In practical reason, Kant through excluded the outside material, confirm the priority of morality in the supreme good. But set in the suspension of the practical reason of Kant, embarks from the free will, will be excluded from the material and the back, so that is good as a perfectly good. And suspension set up god, god will do the final trial. Although the god in the philosophy of Kant is the result of human thinking, is a moral ideal of mankind, but god is an abstract concept, not the existence of reality. I think if the practice mode of thinking about the supreme good implementation in reality, there is no need for suspending hypotheses and in the immortality of the soul to god, through the establishment of "free people" make good can be realized in the real world.
