Abstract

In his view, philosophy of religion has been devoted almost entirely to issues relevant only to the "Abrahamic" religions - particularly questions about God - at the expense of other religions. Rather than exploring these issues, though, Burley sees this chapter as providing a kind of critique of philosophy of religion by prompting a "radical expansion" of "the concept of religion itself". These methods are connected in the sense that, for Burley, philosophy of religion ought to I describe i the I diverse i and distinctive features of religions, rather than seek to homogenize them.
