The Price of Monotheism;
By Jan Assmann.
> a concept such as “counterreligion” is bound to cause offense.
>What? The highest, purest, and most advanced form in which religion can appear to us, monotheism, is to be called not “religion” but “counterreligion”?

>The concept of “counterreligion” is intended to draw out the potential for negation that inheres within secondary religions. These religionsare also essentially “intolerant,” although again, this should not be taken as a reproach. Two hundred and fifty years ago, David Hume not only argued that polytheism is far older than monotheism, he also advanced the related hypothesis that polytheism is tolerant, whereas monotheism is intolerant.6
>This is an age-old argument, which I had no intention of revisiting in my Moses book. Secondary religions must be intolerant, that is, they must have a clear conception of what they feel to be incompatible with their truths if these truths are to exert the life-shaping authority, normativity, and binding force that they claim for themselves. In each case, counterreligions have transformed, from the ground up, the historical realities amidst which they appeared. Their critical and transformative force is sustained by their negative energy, their power of negation and exclusion.

>The ancient Egyptians, like all other adherents of primary religions, knew about the gods rather than believing in them, and this knowledge was not defined in terms of “true and false,” but allowed statements that, to our eyes, seem to contradict each other to stand side by side.
