The thesis takes up two characteristics that are contrary to each other for European societies of late modernity: On the one hand, as soon as a person makes himself an object of reflection, he sees himself referred to an alterity (traditionally interpreted in religious terms as „God“). On the other hand, the status of religious claims to validity in the public sphere (for example, in parliaments, courts or schools) is increasingly restricted and degraded more and more to a private matter. This dissertation attempts to resolve this ambivalence by drawing on the work of Jürgen Habermas. Specifically, the distinctions between ethics and morality or faith and knowledge, which are characteristic for Habermas, are to be linked to a religious epistemology with the aim of clarifying the significance and the scope of religious convictions.

本论文提出了欧洲晚期现代性社会的两个相互矛盾的特征：一方面，一旦一个人把自己作为反思的对象，他就认为自己被称为一个他性（传统上用宗教术语解释为“上帝”）。另一方面，宗教在公共领域（例如在议会、法院或学校）的合法性要求越来越受到限制，越来越沦为私人事务。本文试图通过借鉴尤尔根·哈贝马斯的著作来解决这种矛盾。具体而言，伦理与道德或信仰与知识之间的区别，这是哈贝马斯的特征，将与宗教认识论联系起来，目的是澄清宗教信仰的意义和范围。
