This Master's thesis in theology, Freud and the return of the sacred: the survival and reconfiguration of religion in contemporaneity focuses on Freud's religious ideas from the analysis of his own works. Starting from Freud's prediction that religion would disappear given the supremacy of reason, the thesis examines the post-Freudian period trying to track down the religious during this time. There has been a gradual loss of the plausibility of religion, especially as the social foundation of modernity, in the same proportion that has been a growth of scientific rationality. The grounds of appeal ultimately discredits any claim that cannot be empirically provable, among which religious truths. However, the foundations of modernity begin to crumble with the depletion of reason, along with modernity itself. A new condition of existence settles the re-sacralizing of the world, making a resurgence of religion in a postmodern setting, which has been termed as the return of the sacred. Finally, the thesis recasts Freud's religious ideas in dialogue with theology.
