Zusammenfassung: | This paper confronts Edith Stein’s Christian idea of faith with the Jewish one of Yeshayahu Leibowitz. The discussion begins by uncovering the common starting point of the two thinkers, which anchors religious faith in one’s volitional decision. Yet this commonality appears to be violated by essential differences between their understandings of the religious experience. Delving into the differences between Stein’s and Leibowitz’s idea of faith demonstrates two faces of radicalism in the human religious experience. |
