Paul Ricoeur and religion

The path that Ricoeur peruses is twofold and not only by methodological precaution, that of philosophy, but also of the other philosophy, which is confused with non-philosophy, as is presented today by literature or science. Non-philosophy in Ricoeur is located in favor of religion and here lies linguistics, literary history, general hermeneutics and other disciplines. In this sense, philosophy is not simply critical, it is also placed in the order of conviction, and religious conviction itself has an internal critical dimension.
