The article presents the fundamental aspects of the encyclical Fides et ratio of John Paul II in relation to the historical and theological context of contemporary culture. It points to current problems in the harmonious functioning of societies operating according to paradigms contrary to the absolute truth constituting the theological subject. The errors resulting from modernism (subjective rationalism, cognitive negation of faith) and postmodernism (relativization of truth, atheism and antitheism, reductionism of faith) are discussed here. The existential value of religious faith as showing the correlation of sense and truth was explained. Thus, doing the apology of rational nature of the faith. The truth as a gift contained in God’s revelation, necessary for making sensible of human reality was emphasized.
