Diskurstheoretische Glaubensverantwortung. Konturen einer religiösen Epistemologie in Auseinandersetzung mit Jürgen Habermas

《宗教认识论》探讨宗教信仰的合理性和合理性的当代模式的方法论基础。在我的博士论文中，我通过深入研究哈贝马斯的话语理论，为这种模式提供了轮廓。这一理论的基本要素与当前社会哲学和基础神学的见解相关联，以推断哈贝马斯话语理论的潜力。很明显，哈贝马斯反对对宗教信仰的潜在合理性进行话语分析的保留意见是没有根据的。相反，宗教信仰正当化的主体间性模型可以在话语理论框架内构建出来。事实证明，这种模式在富有成效地应对多元主义、后世俗主义、自然主义和宗教原教旨主义的挑战方面非常有效。

Religious Epistemology investigates the methodological foundations of a contemporary model of the reasonableness and rationality of religious beliefs. In my doctoral thesis, I provide outlines for such a model by an in-depth engagement with the discourse theory of Jürgen Habermas. Basic elements of this theory are interlocked with current insights from social philosophy and fundamental theology in order to extrapolate the potentials of Habermasian discourse theory for such a model. It becomes apparent that Habermas’ very own reservations against a discursive analysis of the potential rationality of religious beliefs are unfounded. Instead, an intersubjective model of the justification of religious beliefs can be worked out within a discourse-theoretic framework. This model proves to be very effective in productively tackling the challenges of pluralism, postsecularism, naturalism and religious fundamentalism.
