Zdybicka, Zofia J.2025-06-132025-06-131991Analecta Cracoviensia, 1991, T. 23, s. 109-118.0209-0864https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/32483In order to describe the existing philosophical knowledge about God and religion the author examines present-day speculations on religion. At the outset she analyzes a variety of approaches to philosophy of God and philosophy of religion, and devides them into two tendencies of practising and lecturing on philosophy of God: (1) philosophy of God closely related to metaphysics, (2) philosophy of God as independent of metaphysics. On the other hand, philosophy of religion can be: (1) descriptive, (2) interpretatory, and (3) explanatory. The author notices that the variety of philosophy of God and philosophy of religion results from richness of the religious phenomenon itself and life interests as well as the cognitive capacity of man. The second part of the article explores philosophy of God and philosophy of religion on the background of classical philosophy which separates philosophy of religion from metaphysics and philosophy of God. Philosophy of religion, however, refers to philosophical anthropology and metaphysics in order to show the subjective and objective ontological factors of religion. The author reaches a conclusion that an authentic religious life grows not from theories on religion but from facts-acts, especially prayer, sacrifice and morality.plCC-BY-NC-ND - Uznanie autorstwa - Użycie niekomercyjne - Bez utworów zależnychfilozofiafilozofia religiireligiafilozofia BogaBógmetafizykaphilosophyphilosophy of religionreligionphilosophy of GodGodmetaphysicsArticle
