Metamorphosis of secularization in modernity
Vlaho Kovačević
Sažetak
Secularization comprehended one-sidedly reveals the ideological – political character of secularization, modernity, and religiosity which lacks tolerance for differences of opinions. This lack of tolerance does not respect freedom of opinion, one’s internal ethics, original thought which leads to the point where secularization, modernity, and religiosity are observed in immoral man, leaving the secular world as a nonbeliever. Without accepting, that the ground reality as the last reason of being goes in the area of double meaning. From that point comes the explanation of secularization having a double meaning which depends on the social context and place where the different explanations meet.
Comprehension of secularization is possible only on a level of deep dimension which is man’s way of putting himself in relation to ground reality, a realization of something that arises from the senses, in imagination, in gesture, in feeling. This expression of ground reality as the ultimate reason of being, not always hiding what one wants to say, is sometimes revealing »holiness« itself. The phenomenology of sacral should be understood as preparation for revealing the meaning of the metamorphosis of secularization.
Thus, further dilemmas which we gain from secularization we can, on one hand, overcome by connecting the metamorphosis of secularization inside Christian religious experience with modern social phenomena. This implies that the metamorphosis of secularization is incorporated inside the visible world as an irreplaceable support in search of building assumptions of spiritual burst.
