Abstract
In this paper, the author discusses Jürgen Habermas’s new thought experiment
about the place of religion in the public sphere. The thought experiment is placed
in the debate about the place of religion in the public sphere. Thorough analysis
shows the valuable insights offered by Habermas in the thought experiment, as well
as several issues with the burdens placed on the shoulders of religious participants.
The author argues that proper inclusion of religious participants is still lacking, even
though the translation proviso is shown to hold much potential. The author also
gives several suggestions for further research.
