"Non-religious Christianity"? Dietrich Bonhoeffer's theological reflections

The author considers Bonhoeffer's demand to interpret the Christianity in a non-religious way to be actual even today. According to him, although vari ous religious subcultures are expanding today, the secularization of the Eu ro-American culture is still going on and showing that religion has been ju st a historically determined, and, therefore, only transitory human phenome non. Thus, the non-religious interpretation of Christianity consists for hi m in eliminating what Boenhoeffer called religion, i.e. metaphysics, indivi dualism, understanding God as deux ex machina, the tutorship and dispensabi lity of religion. The core of Bonhoeffer's non-religious Christianity is in his understanding human existence as participating on God's suffering in t he world.
