Sažetak

Starting from the title taken to be a question of the way to pose questions about God, the author firstly emphasises the need for questioning as aphilosophy itself as well as following directives that philosophy is to be understood as an activity. Posing questions is an activity within philosophy.
The authenticity of asking questions about God requires thought about the form of life. The author then seeks to resolve the question about God authentically posed by Anselmo, Descartes and Heidegger. Anselmo poses the question from a life form of faith, Descartes from a methodical atheism and Heidegger from a Godless point of view. With Anselmo, the question about God is portrayed as thought of the notion of God as already being accepted in faith. With Descartes, the question of God's existence is shown as searching for the notion of infinity which reflects human finity. Corning across the question about God in the context of questioning Western metaphysics and its notion of the being, for Heidegger the question of God brings us to muteness. Here, more than ever forebodes the difference between Godless life forms and those of faith.
The question of God as such brings us to the place where we can more clearly see and where it rises and to where it withdraws.
