Subject Areas: Religious Studies Buddhist Studies Islamic Studies Biblical Studies
Abstract:
Is there a distinct ‘realm’ of religious discourse? Do religious claims so conceived stand in potential conflict with other sorts of claims? Several ways of elucidating the idea of a ‘distinct realm’ are examined and found wanting. Then the work of DZ Phillips is sympathetically, but critically, examined
for its implications for the idea of a distinct ‘realm’ of religious discourse.
