Product Description
On Friedrich Schleiermacher's On Religion; Speeches to its Cultured Despisers (1799, with notes added 1821), first and second speeches. Plus some discussion of Immanuel Kant's Religion within the Limits of Reason Alone
.
Does religion necessarily conflict with science? Schleiermacher says no: the essence of religion is an emotional response to life; it doesn't give knowledge or even tell us what to do exactly. Moreover, this attitude is a necessary to fully enter into life, to be a whole and fulfilled person. Yes, he's of the "romantic" school, but his approach can still be seen today in liberal Protestant churches.
