According to Simmel, religion is at once an externalization and purification of religiosity, resulting in the creation of an autonomous sphere of transcendence. It is argued that, in contradistinction to, for instance, Emile Durkheim, Simmel clearly wanted to avoid religion being reduced to a mere reflection of religiosity in general and to the discussed social manifestations of religiosity in particular. The author ends with a brief discussion of Simmel’s pessimistic diagnosis of the fate of religion within modernity. In his view, modernity is in need of a religion that no longer situates transcendence in an autonomous sphere, cut off from mundane life.
