Ingolf U. Dalferth plädiert dafür, dem gegenwärtigen Abgesang auf die Säkularisierung und der modischen Ausrufung einer neuen postsäkularen Religionsepoche aus theologischen Gründen kritisch gegenüber zu stehen. Von Anfang an hat der christliche Glaube einen entscheidenden Beitrag zum Weltlichwerden der Welt und zur Kritik von Religion geleistet. Orientierung an letzter Gegenwart lässt die Alternative zwischen religiösem und nichtreligiösem Leben hinter sich.
On theological grounds, Ingolf U. Dalferth argues the case for taking a critical stance towards the current leave-taking of secularization and the fashionable proclamation of a new post-secular religious epoch. Right from the start, the Christian faith has made a decisive contribution to the secularization of the world, the criticism of religion, religions and religiosity. Christian faith is concerned with God's presence in all areas of life, often beyond the usual religious forms and in distinction towards them. The orientation towards this ultimate presence and therefore towards antecedent transcendence in the immanence of a secular world leaves the alternative between religious and non-religious life behind. In this work, the author examines the new distinctions which this Christian life orientation demands.
