The Jungian interpretation of religion is an approach, pioneered by Carl Jung and advanced by his followers, to interpret religion in the light of Jungian psychology. Unlike Freud and his followers, Jungians tend to treat religious beliefs and behaviors in a positive light, while offering psychological referents to traditional religious terms such as "soul", "evil", "[[Transcendence (religion)|transcendence", "the sacred", and "God". While no one interpretation of religion is shared by all Jungians, in general theologians and devotees of religion have objected to having their "objective reality" interpreted in subjective terms. That the Jungian interpretation of religion has been, and continues to be, of interest to psychologists, theologians and the public is attested by the large number
