DİN PSİKOLOJİSİNİN GELECEĞİ

Gelecek hakkında konuşmak, kaçınılmaz bir şekilde fantezileri, ümitleri ve arzuları ortaya çıkarır. Bu nedenle, din psikolojisinin geleceği hakkında herhangi bir düşüncenin özel yapısını (çok fazla) hasıraltı etmeye çalışmamak dürüstçe olabilir. Aynı zamanda gerçekten ilgi duymaları ve ayrıca ondan hayatını kazanmaları nedeniyle kendilerini bu alana adamış kişiler tarafından formülleştirilmekte olan bu düşünceleri toplamak doğru bir davranış olabilir. Din psikolojisinin geleceği hakkındaki çeşitli muhtemel tartışma, düşünce ve birliktelikleri anlaşılabilir yapmak için, her birinde yalnızca birkaç kelime ve cümle sunacağım beş farklı görüş aracılığıyla bir tür diyalektik tur yapma niyetindeyim. Bu bir Avrupalının arzuladığı Alman titizliğiyle apaçık bir sonuç vermemesine rağmen, sunumum yine de Hegelci (ve hatta bazı kişisel) tutkular içerecektir. Kısa bir ufuk turunun sonunda ilk konumun değişmiş bir türünün gösterileceği bir konuma ulaşacağız.

The Future of Psychology of Religion

Speaking about the future inevitably reveals fantasies, hopes, and desires. It may be honest, therefore, not to try to suppress (too much) the personal character of any thoughts on the future of psychology of religion. It may also be fair to add that these thoughts are being formulated by someone devoted to this field of scholarship for reasons of intrinsic interest, but also because he makes a living from it. In order to make the different possible arguments, thoughts and associations on the future of psychology of religion understandable, I propose to make a kind of dialectic tour through five different positions, each of which I will present with only a few words and sentences. Although this will evidently not yield the deutsche Gründlichkeit for which a European may long, my presentation will nevertheless not be without Hegelian (and even some personal) passion. After a brief tour d'horizon we will arrive at a position that will show up to be a transformed version of the first position.
