Abstract

The article discusses the concept of religious culture which
 is based on religious dogma understood as static, unchanging foundation.
 The basis for the statement of the problem is the idea of
 immutability of religious culture and the realization that this type
 of culture cannot be called culture in the full sense of the definition
 since it is based on a static basis, namely a religious dogma. Among
 the essential characteristics of culture there is freedom as a value.
 How do the dogma and freedom combine within the religious
 culture? Is it possible to exercise freedom within this type of culture
 which is based on the religious dogma resistant to transformation?
 In religious culture freedom as a three-level concept is fully realized
 at the highest level of understanding freedom: despite the static,
 dogmatic base of religious culture there are no restrictions on feeling
 oneself free within existence, both personal and public. Religious
 culture is antinomic in the connection of the highest, idealistic
 appeal to God with worldly ways of its implementation which
 demonstrate the specificity of this type of culture. Consideration
 of the category of freedom carried out in this paper allows us to
 express the specifics of implementation and realization of freedom
 within religious culture, thus highlighting the cultural component
 in the understanding of this type of culture. Consideration of freedom as not only philosophical but also the cultural category provides
 a basis for further analysis of the main cultural components such
 as the value and creativity.
