The question of god has always occupied Heidegger's thinking, from his initial involvement with the Catholic faith, going through his approach to Protestant theology, followed by a period in which he seems to approach atheism until finally the phase in which the sacred takes on a poetic character and is fully imanente. Kiesel notes that, at least as far as the beginning of his journey is concerned, there is a strong reciprocity between Heidegger's biography and philosophy. Macdowell, however, seems to exaggerate this reciprocity, to the point of suggesting that Heidegger's initial experience of faith is somehow transposed to his understanding of man. Despite the possible influences of Christian theology and mysticism in Heidegger, we understand, like Jonas, that the sacred here is closer to a Greek ("pagan") than a Christian perspective. The sacred in Heidegger is a dimension without which the gods cannot appear. The gods are manifestations of the sacred, their epochal and historical sending, which reveals the immanent character of the sacred in Heidegger and the threat it poses to Christian theology, by making its god a mere event of language.
