520 |a This is an essay about believing rather than beliefs. I use the term ‘anonymous' to analyse Karl Rahner's concept of ‘anonymous Christianity', and to underline the universality of believing. Rahner's ‘anonymous Christianity' seeks to render universal a traditional exclusive Christian message of salvation. However, in insisting that Christ remains the pivot of this message, Rahner subverts the promise of his concept. I use the term ‘anonymous believing' to emphasize that believing is a universal human instinct to create meaning, from within an existence whose contingency inevitably lies beyond explanation. Believing has a natural primacy over knowing. Critical believing is the attempt to create meaning amidst the complexities of our subjectivity, and the cultural contexts of our lives and of the physical world, knowledge of which is constantly growing. My contention is that the primacy of believing is undermined by the primacy accorded to the knowledge-based assertions that are currently characteristic of religious creeds and moral injunctions. Anonymous critical believing eschews creeds, but embraces the values of justice, compassion and well-being, which religions also espouse. There are close links between ‘implicit religion' and ‘critical believing'. However, I believe the two are categorically different: implicit religion is predominantly descriptive and substantival, while critical believing is process orientated.
