dc.description.abstractThere are two different approaches in the realm of teaching or investigating of the religions in the universities. On the one hand either the secular or the naturalist approach tries to explain the religions by irreligious factors, on the other hand, either the theological or classical phenomenology aims to describe the religions from insider's perspective. According to this outlook, whereas the secularist researchers defend on the fact that the religions should be taught by atheist or humanist acedemicians, the theological phenomenologists assert that the religions should be taught by the religious or beleivers. Although most people think that we are compelled to accept the only one from these two approaches, actually, here we argue for the third alternative way or position; we souldn't be urged to accept the concept of being secular as a positivist and an euro-centric paradigm. Therefore we may attain for an un-positivistic and un-reductionist concept of being secular and a new understanding of secularity which is in harmony with our own religious traditions and values.en_US
