Abstract
What means sin in Paul Tillich’s thought? How this meaning can relate with Gianni Vat-timo’s postmetaphysical thinking? I believe these two questions guide this paper. Firstly, we have dealt with the relation between alienation and sin. The manifestation of alienation as man’s separation from God’s being, from his being and from world’s being is denominated as desbelief, as hybris and as concupiscence. Secondly, alienation is, at the same time, man’s fate, something from which he is not able to flee, and the consequence of his free-dom. We have observed when reading Tillich departing from Vattimo that the most distance between both of them is on ontology, that is, the appearance or not of the being as stable ground. We can find out an approach between Tillich and Vattimo in the relation between love and sin.
