The concept of secularization has grown to become one of the most
important features of contemporary religious though. This book
introduces and examines the thinking of sixteen key theologians,
philosophers and historians of religion to explain (a) why by the
late nineteenth century the traditional concept of God as an
ontologically real being came to be considered no longer necessary
and (b) how the new perspective on God, which accepts him only as
an idea, turned into the preferred approach of today's religion and
philosophy, namely religious radicalism. While it affects both
philosophy and theology, religious radicalism sets out to present
the idea of God as applicable to the human being in all respects,
to the point that the word God becomes a mirror for the acute,
rational, and experiential awareness of contemporary men and women.
Readers will find this book an insightful and useful guide to
contemporary thinking on secularization in the religious and
theological context.
