Sažetak
The article gives a fundamentally-theological reflection of Edmund Arens' lectures. The first part of the article refers to the »comeback of religion«. The author attempts to briefly outline the main features of this discussion. The second part of the article is based on the thinking of R. Rorty and G. Vattimo about religion during the period of radical interpretation as a fundamental horizontal to understand religion. This is followed by the author's thoughts about religion through J. Werbick's theological thought which is not widely known in Croatia. The last part of the article reflects in particular on some of Arens' interpretations of the thoughts of the philosopher J. Habermas. The author doesn't agree with Arens' thesis that J. Habermas' opinion about religion has changed significantly over the past few years; the author attempts to explain his opinion by analysing where J. Habermas in his contemporary thinking about public discourse places religion.
