Benedicto XVI y el ateísmo contemporáneo
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This article presents the dialogues of J. Ratzinger-Benedict XVI with three prominent atheists: Paolo Flores d’Arcais (2000), Jürgen Habermas (2004) and Piergiorgio Odifreddi (2013- 2021). Benedict XVI is convinced that confrontation with secular reason is a requirement of faith, which benefits from such dialogue. At the same time, it denounces the pathologies of reason and invites it to be self-critical. J. Ratzinger surprises by choosing with precision the questions with which he intends to get to the very heart of the world views that he seeks to criticize and demonstrates, at the same time, the reasonable nature of the believing option.
