"Sie ist das Opium des Volks"

"It is the opium of the people"
[journal article]

Abstract

"'Das Psychologische' existiert auch im Diskurs über Religion und Religiosität nicht 'für sich', sondern es ist unabtrennbarer Bestandteil des 'gesellschaftlichen Ensembles', steht in dialektischem Verhältnis zu Geschichte, Ökonomie, Kunst- und Kulturproduktion.

"'Das Psychologische' existiert auch im Diskurs über Religion und Religiosität nicht 'für sich', sondern es ist unabtrennbarer Bestandteil des 'gesellschaftlichen Ensembles', steht in dialektischem Verhältnis zu Geschichte, Ökonomie, Kunst- und Kulturproduktion. Angst, Not und Unwissenheit begünstigen Entdifferenzierung und fördern Entstehung von Religion und ihrer Praktik. Auch ohne Angst, Not und Unwissenheit kann religiös empfunden und praktiziert werden, weil die religiöse Prägung in unserer Kultur bereits mit der Geburt einsetzt. Ist die religiöse Erziehung frei von Repression, kann angstfreie Religiosität gelingen." (Autorenreferat)... view less

"'The psychological' is not existent in the discourse of religion and religiousness apart; it is an integral part of the society, is in dialectical relation to history, economics and the production of art and culture. Anxiety, misery and ambiguity promote Entdifferenzierung and the development of religion and religious practices. But also without anxiety, misery and ambiguity it is possible to feel and practice religion, because the religious imprinting starts with the child's birth. If the religious education is free of pressure, fearless religiousness can succeed." (author's abstract)... view less
