güç ve kapasitesine göre din problemi üzerine düşünmeye ve çeşitli yaklaşımlar
ortaya koymaya yönelten bir olgudur.

düşüncesi de en genel anlamıyla tüm dini öğretilere karşı ortaya çıkan fikirlerle
şekillenen bir dönem olarak kabul edilmektedir.

konan yaklaşımların bir değerlendirmesini yaparak, Aydınlanmayı oluşturduğu
kabul edilen görüşlerin bir eleştirisini yapmaktır.
