I first distinguish an uninteresting modest naturalism from the more ambitious and relevant scientific naturalism. Secondly I survey three different kinds of attempting to naturalize religion: naturalizing the social aspect of religion, naturalizing religious experience, and naturalizing reference to the transcendent. Thirdly I argue that these projects operate with a conception of nature which is insufficiently clear. I suggest three ways of charitably explicating that tacit conception of what is natural before arguing that neither of these three positions works. Lastly I offer an irenic proposal: we would do good in giving up the scientific naturalism that underlies projects of naturalizing religion in order to embrace Lynne Rudder Baker's recently proposed notion of near-naturalism which allows the naturalist to retain a 'science first' attitude while avoiding problematic, overly restrictive notions of what is natural.}, language = {en} } @article{vonKalckreuth2019, author = {von Kalckreuth, Moritz Alexander}, title = {Wie viel Religionsphilosophie braucht es f{\"u}r eine Philosophie der Person?}, series = {Neue Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Systematische Theologie und Religionsphilosophie}, volume = {61}, journal = {Neue Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Systematische Theologie und Religionsphilosophie}, number = {1}, publisher = {De Gruyter}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {0028-3517}, doi = {10.1515/nzsth-2019-0004}, pages = {67 -- 83}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Der vorliegende Beitrag er{\"o}rtert das Verh{\"a}ltnis einer Philo-sophie der Person zur Religionsphilosophie bzw. einer Philosophie religi{\"o}ser Ph{\"a}nomene.
