Deleuze and philosophy of religion

Philip Goodchild

pp. 139-164

Abstract

While Deleuze's philosophy is not ostensibly religious, he is not overtly hostile either to religion or metaphysics. While these subjects do not feature prominently in his reflections, he provides an impetus to explore temporal existence within an immanent frame that both celebrates life and encourages expressions of beauty. Such a perspective has the potential to inform a revision of the understanding of both religion and ethics.
