Abstract

The title of the recent work by Ronald Dworkin, “Religion without God” (2013), reveals the basic thesis of the book that religion is something deeper than God. For his argument, Dworkin refers to Paul Tillich, among others. This article shows that Dworkin completely missed Tillich’s meaning and that his presentation is unfair to both modern theology and the classical metaphysical tradition. He reinterprets the concept of religion in a way that makes no sense
