Goethe was contemptuous of religion: "If a man has neither art nor science, let him have religion."
Okay, so now you agree with me that western philosophical history has widely been interested in, cared about, concerned with (take your pick) religion and religious thinking. Obviously because it is a substantial part of the human experience.
That is what I said hours ago.
Carry on.
You can only expect me to respond to words you actually write.
You should have said most prominent modern era philosophers are skeptical, or even hostile to religion.
I would not have disagreed with that.
If you want to revise what you wrote, let me know.
You wrote that the history of philosophy doesn't care about, not interested in religion.
That is categorically incorrect.
Having a public forum to excoriate the morality of the U.S. war in Vietnam is fine. USA should be held to a higher standard. But these kangaroo courts would have more credibility if they took the crimes against humanity of the Soviet and Maoist regimes more seriously.
