Pathways and crossroads to creditions: Insights from a retrospective view

Abstract: Credition is a neologism derived from the Latin word credere (to believe) and designates processes of believing (Angel, 2013a). In many languages (and esp. in German) the term belief is widely associated with religion and religious beliefs. Indeed, the need for a new term became evident during the so-called Regensburg Symposia (1998-2005) (Angel, 2006a) that were aimed at increasing our understanding of the phenomenon of religiosity (see below) and the dynamics of 'religious beliefs'.

“…Die Beschreibung von Glaubensinhalten ist somit von der begrifflichen Ebene und der Verhaltensebene auf die Ebene der kognitiven Neurowissenschaft getragen worden 60 .
