Absztrakt (kivonat)

This paper uses Hegel's famous qoutation from „Rameau's cousin" (written by Diderot) as a starting point to understand our present approach to religion. For it is clear that we are in a similar situation. In today's world religion is still often vehemently attacked as an entirely harmful social phenomenon and Christianity is usually criticised with arguments like what popular Enlightenment writers such as Baron d'Hobach used. Hegel strongly attacked the Enlightenment view of religion, although he himself started under its influence, particularly under the influence of Kantian criticism. The Enlightenment first called the existence of organised church and its practices into question. Then it proceeded to question religion itself, with the purpose of reinstalling "man's original nature", the self-value of humanity, allegedly denied by religious ideology. However, through a short presentation of Hegel's criticism directed against Enlightenment we discover our reasons to abandon this goal. The seeking of humanity's self value ends with a remark of Rameau's cousin: „I don't submerge into philosophy." Eradicating religion leads only to ideologies, and philosophy with science may see the same fate as religion did following the Enlightenment's radical attacks on transcendency. Human values deprived of any form in which they transcend their world as thought will be reduced to commercial values or destructive ideologies. Hope is a basic form of human existence, and religion is only a strengthened form of hope. Thus every form of transcending here and now and seeking hope is basicaly religious in its nature — so this paper argues.
