The article is theoretically methodological and analytically empirical in nature. The theoretical section deals with the status of proper names in various types of discourse and in variations of style in Polish. It proposes combining onomastics with various branches of contemporary analysis of discourse, general linguistics, stylistics, and theories of text and literature. The author considers means of analyzing proper names on lexical, grammatical, textual, semantic-pragmatic, and functional levels. The empirical section is a corroboration of the methodological determinations. The author examines in what way proper names are used in pastoral letters of the episcopate of Poland (1945-1966), which are linguistic designations of specific objects and persons existing in Polish reality (such as: Warszawa, Jasna Gora, Polska, sw. Stanislaw, Henryk Sienkiewicz), and reveals various fragments of the accompanying extralinguistic context (historical and political). Analysis shows that proper names in the pastoral letters are an important element of their rhetoric, linguistic material constructing metaphors such as 'the history of Poland is the life of the people' or 'Poland is a child (a daughter)'. They also serve various stylizational practices (e.g., romantic, Biblical), and thereby the expression of philosophical, historico-physical, ethical, and social content (e.g., the idea of Messianism). Geographical names demarcate a symbolic 'cartography' of Poland, Europe, and the world. Personal names create a category of time, especially of the nation's past and future. Onyms are also sure designations of values and concepts, primarily of a Polonocentric Catholicism, which in turn is an element of dialog with Marxist ideological orientation.

Jozef Tischner’s prose is characterized by the high level of cohesion forming on the logical, compositional, syntactic, conceptual and lexical level apart from its specific diversity. However, the main determinant of its cohesion is the correspondence among philosophical reflection over the language, dialogue, metaphor and the determinants of religious language and text phenomena occurring in the subjective layer being the incarnations of metalinguistic theoretical phrases.

The main task of the philosophy of religion is to adequately define the concept of religion – it should be comprehensive enough to cover all historically known forms of religion and restrictive enough to exclude any other cultural forms which are only similar to religion. How we understand the nature of religious beliefs (their propositional, volitional and emotional content) determines the method of philosophizing about religion. The religious doctrine plays a decisive role in religion, in one way or another motivating and justifying moral norms and worship practices. Traditionally oriented philosophers of religion have been chiefly interested in reasons for accepting a religious doctrine and in metaphysical problems; analytical philosophy of religion has brought into focus the semiotics of religious propositions.

Contemporary research about the religious notions of the Hebrew Bible, such as the soul, the body, and truth shows their concrete, non-abstract, and non-speculative nature. From the beginning, Christian thinkers interpreted these notions from the Greek philosophical perspective, with its abstract mentality. Contemporary philosophers tend to remove this limitation. Richard Rorty, for example, proposed using categories freed from the idea of an unchangeable absolute. His proposal to replace abstract philosophy with literature is closer to the classic Hebrew mentality than to Christian abstract theology. Catholic dogma contradicts the historicity of the old Hebrew biblical narration. However, Thomas Aquinas, considered to be the main author of this abstract, anti-historical approach, was nevertheless able to express the historical perspective by using the notion of participation. Unfortunately, Catholic thought after him radicalised the anti-historical perspective by universalising the abstract scheme and interpreting Catholic dogma as a kind of eternal entity.
