Re: phenomenology of religionAllen, The Heidegger of the first part of GA60 ("Introduction to the phenomenology of religion") is a theologian - or rather: a pastor. In GA60:116:125 Heidegger describes how Paul's letters are no longer about a doctrine (hae basileia tou theou - Luc. 16:16) but about a way of life (Rom 1:3; 10:9). This way of life is historically determined. In Heidegger's words: christian religiosity lives [sic!] temporality. This life leads to and takes place before God (1Thess. 1:3, 5:9). The realities of life are "being lived" [sic!] as if not (als ob nicht - in Greek: hoos mae). Heidegger gives no reference for the "hoos mae" - but it will be clear that this attitude towards "ta onta" is characteristic for Christian facticity (see also 1Cor. 7:20; 1:26ff.). Is this what you are looking for? Henk
