Abstract

Many complex problems are implied in the general relationship between philosophy and religion. In this section, as well as the next one, we would like to take a look at three of them: (a) whether or not the knowledge of God should be considered today an extra-philosophical problem; (b) what the task of 'philosophy of religion' consists on; and (c) whether or not there exists an insuperable difference between philosophy and religion so that a 'philosophy of religion' would be a mistake.
