Beschreibung

This book develops a "pure theory" of religion comparable to the pure theory of mathematics. It does so by focusing on the miracle of Christ's Resurrection from the dead on the Third Day; either outright and explicitly, or implicitly, in reflections and thought experiments made with historical thinkers, like Saint Augustine of Hippo and Ludwig Wittgenstein, for whom this miracle was central and true.
