Krytyka jungowskiej koncepcji religii

Abstract

It was especially at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries that there observed a tendency to a multifaceted explanation of the religious fact. Such attempts were made also in psychology in the psychoanalytic school of Carl Gustav Jung. Yet, according to him the theory of religion is conditioned by some methodological and philosophical assumptions, i.e. only psychic facts and empirical method really exist. Such a view resolved the whole range of religion down to the dimension of religious experience. That understanding of religion resolved the author of the theory down to a group of contemporary atheists on the basis of materialism.
