Religious Experience : The challenge in defining
the religious
experience is in placing the role of a Supreme Personal Being.
Traditional religions continue to meet the needs of a majority of
the population, while the alternative views have gained credence
over time. The existence of a supreme being, or 'God' is
essential to the moral and ethical belief systems found most
commonly. This 5 page paper argues that religious experience
can also be defined outside the bounds of a Supreme Personal
Being. Ann Besant, a seventeenth century philosopher sets an
example for the realization of a strong religious experience that
grows out of a belief in a Supreme Being into a religious
experience based on secular humanism. The philosophers Kant
and Kierkegard also addressed the issue of a belief, and, or,
experience with a Supreme Being as non-essential to deep
religious conviction. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
