Offera a new reading of Deleuze's whole corpus in light of his
treatment of religion and theological themes. French philosopher
Gilles Deleuze was vehemently opposed to the idea of the
transcendental, yet still found value in religion - in its ability
to 'secrete atheism'. F LeRon Shults explores Deleuze's fascination
with theological themes throughout his entire corpus. He brings
Deleuzian concepts into dialogue with insights derived from the bio
cultural sciences of religion in order to increase the flow of a
productive atheism. The first exposition of Deleuze's radical
critique of religion, demonstrating the crucial role this creative
destruction plays throughout his philosophical corpus;
provocatively describes this aspect of Deleuze's work as
'theology', following his own (paradoxical, humorous, diabolical)
description of that discipline as 'the science of non existing
entities'; and brings Deleuze studies into dialogue with the bio
cultural sciences of religion, which are transforming the current
debates about the value of atheism in the academy and the public
sphere.
