Statements about God are often highlighted as a unique philosophical problem. Religious language typically takes the form of indicative statements of fact but resists the traditional means of verification or falsification. Despite this apparent deficiency, religious statements continue to abound and individuals who find themselves saying the wrong things about God can face harsh consequences. How can one explain the simultaneous ambiguity, uniquity, and existential involvement of such religious locutions? The Greek philosophical tradition tends to emphasize clarity in language and certainty in knowledge, such that religious statements are frequently sidelined in serious discussion. Modern empiricism, established on foundationalist and objectivist epistemological assumptions, promotes a view of language as an inert container for reified mental contents. The designative theory of language, as it will be called, prohibits any semantic influence of language over the content of the proposition. The natural destination of this historical trajectory, logical positivism, goes so far as to claim that any statements that does not admit to empirical verification or falsification is meaningless. In response to this challenge, several theories, generally grouped as cognitive and non-cognitive, hope to offer new approaches to religious language that still abide by the same epistemological commitments.
