Jean-Luc Marion

Jean-Luc Marion is a French philosopher and theologian known for his exploration of religious experience and the nature of God. In the context of religious ethics, he emphasizes the importance of phenomenology, which examines how individuals perceive and experience the divine. Marion argues that genuine encounters with God reveal love and self-giving, shaping our moral responsibilities toward others. He challenges conventional views of God as merely an object of thought, advocating for a relational understanding that deeply influences ethical behavior, calling for an ethics rooted in the experience of divine love and relationality.
