Od ateizmu pojęcia do ateizmu bez pojęcia
From Atheism of the Concept towards Atheism without the Concept

Summary/Abstract: Wróbel explores ‘atheism of the concept,’ which for him gives rise to the ‘cult of the concept’. He asks if ‘atheism of the concept’ might not be a vestige of theistic thinking, which we ought to overcome. He also asks if an ‘atheism beyond the concept’ might be possible, but this forces him to reflect on the very notion of the concept. He remains conscious of the fact that the ‘concept’ is not ‘beyond life’ but is ‘a way of life’ – one among many. This is why Wróbel does not present ‘atheism of the concept’ as opposite to ‘atheism without the concept,’ in as far as ‘the concept’ is not the opposite of ‘life’. ‘Atheism without the concept’ is rather an atheistic practice and concerns ‘lifestyle’ rather than the content of ‘convictions’ or ‘conceptual forms’. In an atheistic world, time is not about activating potential; it is not the reality of time that creates the reality of events, but the events themselves allow the course of time to unfold. The cosmos thus understood is not governed by any timeless principle, it must rely on the pure immanence of its being outside of rectitude and beyond the conceptual.
