Abstract

By means of linguistic philosophical expertize the article shows why the encyclical letter Fides et Ratio bears this title and not the title Fides et Intellectus. In that encyclical letter it is stressed that the Catholic Church does not have its »own« philosophy, which means that it prefers the whole Christian and Catholic philosophical tradition and not only one of its parts. In the remaining part of this article the effects of reason on faith are presented (as e.g. democratic movement, Enlightenment with all its limitations, emphasizing of freedom, particularly religious and political freedom, human rights, dialogue and pluralism).
