Popis: | The article presents Franc Rode’s teaching on the possibility of religious experience in the life of a contemporary person as he discussed it in his textbook for fundamental theology “Osnovno bogoslovje” (1979). Rode was a lecturer of fundamental theology at the Faculty of Theology in Ljubljana between 1967 and 1981, i.e. in a time when Slovenia was a part of a highly secularized SFR Yugoslavia, which was founded on atheist Marxism. In his discussion, Rode presents existential and philosophical reasons for experiencing God as the absolute meaning of life and the final aim of the world. He shows the individual’s intuitive need for transcendent in a modern society, based on a technological development that demystified the natural world and on the political vision of a laicized state. |
