Jud:
"Heideggerian Existentialism is an abstract Religion."
IMO is a better way of putting it, for from what I've picked up on the net it 
also has an weird appeal to the members of other world religions.
I agree though, that because of Heidegger's early brainwashing, the elements 
of Christianity are more easier to descry.  

BTW with reference to my remarks that Kant may have prudently expressed a 
[tenuous] belief in God for the purposes of his own survival as the Chair of 
Phil at Konigsburg.  I just read that Fichte was kicked out of his chair at 
Jena for expounding atheism more or less contemporaneously with the writing/ 
publication of Kant's seminal works. Coincidence?
