==Dewey and religion==

In his work and throughout his career, Dewey mostly ignored the topic of religion.  Important exceptions include his 1892 address "Christianity and Democracy" given to the University of Michigan Students' Christian Association and his 1933 Terry Lectures at Yale University&mdash;the basis of his 1934 book ''A Common Faith''.  In ''A Common Faith'' Dewey attempted to somehow separate the experience of the "religious" from the supernatural aspects of "God" and "religion".<ref> ''Reinhold Niebuhr and John Dewey: An American Odyssey'', Daniel F.

Rockefeller, Dewey was an American [[Feuerbach]].  Both Dewey and Feuerbach believed that they possessed a deep philosophical understanding of Christianity.  Their shared belief rejected the [[Incarnation]] and all other biblical miracles.<ref> [http://books.google.com/books?id=LOc6q5lmEj8C ''John Dewey: Religious Faith and Democratic Humanism''], Steven C.
