Abstract

After a brief overview of Wittgenstein's stock of remarks on the subject of religion from 1949 - 1951, this article will focus on two particular points: (1) supposedly nonsensical conceptions of God, for instance in the context of proofs of God, (2) definitions of the term "God"by hinting at something. Connections between (1) and (2) both systematically and exegetically within the framework of Wittgenstein's remarks are made. Ich danke Anja Weiberg für sehr hilfreiche Kommentare.
