Freud’s psychoanalytic treatment of religion is, or appear to be, very powerful in accounting for the dominance of this form of behavior in human affairs.
However, Freud’s principles of explanation when dealing with religion (or, indeed, any subject) have been accused of being reductionist.
Briefly (short paragraph) explain the import of this accusation.
Then, attempt to “save the phenomena” by developing an account of either religion or God (but not both) which can stand by itself theoretically against the critical pressures of the Freudian approach.
[Note: this question encompasses both a critique of Freud’s procedures as well as a substantive contribution concerning the topics under scrutiny.]
What is Sartre’s atheism?
Sartre’s atheism emphasizes that it is liberating and indeed optimistic to anyone who embraces this approach.
Consider one aspect of human life which would be profitably interpreted and acted upon based on assuming that Sartre is correct and that God does not exist.
The key concept here is, of course, “profitably”.
Your discussion should take into account how “profit” should be understood from the standpoint of the agent (i.e., the atheist) as well as how the atheist’s actions would or might affect other resident in the atheist’s environment.
