"what yesterday was still religion is no longer such today and what is atheism tomorrow will be religion
Explanation:
- Ludwig Feuerbach, an anthropologist and German philospher and at an early age he became interested in religion.
- Feuerbach was a disciple of Hegel and he regarded religion as a essential aspect of the self-consciousness of man. For Feuerbach religion was human nature's fact, however he believed that man's religious interest's object moves from a God who is imaginary to man .
- God is a projection at best of the highest aspirations, at worst a neurotic symptom. The question relating to non-existence/existence of God, adopting the Hegelian dialect's tones - the opposition between atheism and theism, belongs to the 16th &17th centuries and not to the 19th century.
- Feuerbach states that he denied God which for him meant that he denied man's negation ( negation of the subject meant the negation of religion & atheism). Feuerbach believed that Christanity had brought down God into man and that man can be elevated to being God.
- Therefore things change and he said "what yesterday was still religion is no longer such today and what is atheism tomorrow will be religion". Christianity's super natural element was not a problem; it was only a language of picture-book wherein man conveys his dreams
- The humanity religion for Feuerbach guaranteed freedom form the guilt-ridden suppression of traditional religion, a liberation spirit that would lead man to accomplish their potential
