Religious belief involves an acceptance of truth, but also an existential immersion in an imaginary sphere and participation in what Kant described as “aesthetic machinery”. This enables one to establish contact to one`s own unconsciousness and probably that which stands above mankind. The aim of this religious philosophical study is to shed light on this evolutionary strategy and subject it to a scientific evaluation.
Michael F. Köck trat mit 19 Jahren in das Benediktinerkloster St. Peter in Salzburg ein. Er studierte in Salzburg und Innsbruck Philosophie und Theologie und wurde währenddessen zum Priester geweiht. Seit 1998 hält er an der Universität Salzburg Vorlesungen im Fachbereich Philosophie (Logik, Erkenntnistheorie, Religionsphilosophie), wo er sich auch habilitierte.
