6. God in the act of reference : A conceptual analysis of reference and reality and its consequences for the debate on religious realism and nonrealism
Abstract : The dissertation addresses the problem of reference actualised in religiousrealism's claim that religious nonrealism is religiously inadequate since init "God" does not refer to a God existing independently of human conceptualisations.
