  Ewa ŁukaszykPolitical/Religious Correctness as a Landmark of Reflection: an Obstacle and a TemptationThe essay attempts to juxtapose the phenomenon of political correctness with other modes of thinking based on unshakable orthodoxy, most notably with religious thinking. To uncover the roots of political correctness it is necessary to go back to Renaissance humanism, which was historically the first to endow the Other with equal rights. Attempts to construct a solid pluralism are fraught with substantial difficulties that result from a major problem with thinking difference out. Political correctness is a transgression against intellectual integrity but, by the same token, it is tempting as a system of simplified thinking, which offers the comfort of not having to cope with the hardships of individual reflection. On the other hand, attempts to evade correct thinking, as José Saramago’s case illustrates, often lead to another kind of correctness.;
