- Title
Ökonomie des Glaubens?

- Abstract
Religious faith is based on a different economic logic. It is a double space-economy: the worldly space of human life and God's space of heaven, the last one as a space for a second-life of the soul. Religious men have to reflect their lifes in behalf of their placement in heaven. But it is no decision of man to enter heaven after death; it belongs to God's grace. So we cannot easily transform this economy of religion into modern economics. It is a different gift-economy, but without any mode of reciprocity.
