Zubiri and Philosophy of Religion

The article focuses on philosophy of religion starting from a critical comparison between Zubiri's theoretical point of view, which is based on sentient intelligence's theory, and phenomenological and hermeneutic methods. The author highlights the triple dimension of the experience of God (individual, social and historical) and the double meaning of the concept of reality (as otherness and as foundation). The reality as foundation brings the author to face the concept of re-ligation, and re-ligation is, at the same time, an experience, an enigma and a manifestation of the power of reality. At this stage, the author argues that man, who is a relatively absolute reality, is an experience of God, who is an absolutely absolute reality. In this context comes up the difference between a theological research and theologal dimension.
