The Dialectics of Mysticism | God Beyond God

This week we explore the critique of God as Super-Being from a theological perspective.

The apophatic tradition - also known Negative Theology - represents a very rich period of thought that developed a series of critiques of superstition and the idea of God as a being. While apophatic theology holds an important - and often overlooked - place in the history of atheism, it is not just a historical artifact. The movement developed sophisticated ideas that continue to be mined by contemporary thinkers to approach the most difficult philosophical questions.
