When Feuerbach deals with the unique, he limits himself to considering it as a "unique individual," chosen from a class or species and "opposed as sacred and inviolable to other individuals." In this choosing and opposing "the essence of religion remains. This man, this unique, this incomparable being, this Jesus Christ, is only and exclusively God. This oak, this place, this bull, this day is sacred, not the others." He concludes: "Chase the Unique in Heaven from your head, but also chase away the Unique on earth."
