The "Manifesto" develops further the Critical Theory of Religion intrinsic to the Critical Theory of Society of the Frankfurt School into a new paradigm of the Psychology, Sociology, Philosophy and Theology of Religion. Its central theme is the theodicy problem. The "Manifesto" approaches this theme in the framework of comparative religion and critical political theology in a narrative and discursive fashion. In search for a solution to the theodicy problem the "Manifesto" explores with the help the critical theory of society from Max Horkheimer and Ernst Bloch through Walter Benjamin and Theodor W. Adorno, Herbert Marcuse, Erich Fromm and Leo Loewenthal to Jurgen Habermas and Axel Honneth and with the assistance of the new political theology from Johannes B. Metz through Helmut Peukert to Edmund Arens, trends in civil society toward Alternative Future I (the Totally Administered Society), Alternative Future II (the Militarized Society), and Alternative Future III (the Reconciled Society) in the horizon of the longing for the Wholly Other as perfect justice and unconditional love.
