Summary: | The article is written on the occasion of Jürgen Habermas’ recent Philosophy of Religion Auch eine Geschichte der Philosophie and ends with a contemporary account of S. Kierkegaard and C. S. Peirce. As is known from Habermas’ earlier publications, under the conditions of our secular life-world (in which the sense of contingency is increasing) there are nevertheless good reasons for a modern society to use the potential and sources of the traditional religious heritage, at least after a transformation of the »sacral complex« or »sacramental core.« This is similar to Hans Joas’ thesis that religion worldwide does not automatically disappear under the pressure of rationality. Following Habermas, Kierkegaard is witness to a modernization of ethics as a »religious writer,« Peirce to the pos-sible »marriage« of religion and science. In Kierkegaard, surprisingly, a radical reinterpretation of the sacred under secular constraints is found in his 13 Discourses on the Holy Communion, while in Peirce, surprising in another sense, his »semiotic idealism« must not be forgotten because its logic leads directly to his famous Neglected Argument for the Reality of God. |
