The critical suspicion that religion offers mere fictions is especially prominent in modernity. But if the power of imagination with its as-if is altogether decisive for man? And: To what extent can fiction and reality be distinguished at all? What does this possibly mean for the reality of God, the Christian message of resurrection and the practice of worship? Does the counter-worldly character of monotheism come into play here? The contributions explore these and similar questions from philosophical and theological perspectives.
