Abstract

Abstract:The authors attend to understudied Africana nonbeliever postures—including humanist, atheist, freethought, and nontheist—calling the field of Africana religions to study this quantitatively small, yet significant life orientation. The article includes a survey of Africana nonbeliever organizations and voices in the West, an overview of atheism and irreligious affiliation in certain African countries, and an argument that a critical methodological approach, augmented by a concern for hermeneutical variation, provides a platform for further research into Africana nonbelief.

信仰之外的非洲宗教

摘要：作者关注研究不足的非洲非信仰者姿态——包括人道主义者、无神论者、自由思想者和非宗教者——呼吁非洲宗教领域研究这种数量较小但意义重大的生活取向。这篇文章包括对西方非洲非信徒组织和声音的调查，对某些非洲国家的无神论和非宗教信仰的概述，以及一种观点，即批判性的方法论方法，加上对解释学变异的关注，为进一步研究非洲非信徒提供了一个平台。
