Overview
Ludwig Feuerbach was a 19th century German philosopher who dared to analyse the reasons why men idolise their gods. For this author, it is men who create their divine beings out of themselves, in other words, the old creator-creature relationship is not seen by this author in the same way as theologians see it. Theology is anthropology! Men create their gods, not the other way round. But why do men create these supernatural beings in such a fantastic way? At what point in our experience of the world do we create the divine? And most importantly: what does this represent and from what fundamental principle is this made possible? The answers to these questions are critically addressed throughout this work by confronting the two distinct perspectives present in the main works of this important author.
