Where does grace belong in philosophy? ?

Updated 7 hours ago:

Grace is undeserved love.   I understand we use the word  to describe ballerinas and people under pressure.  It’s kind of connected if you think about it.  I absolutely was talking about a word Luther, Aquinas, Kirkegard, even Tillich discuss.  It’s theological but is Grace only about God?  Anyhow, last ditch effort to get questions out before it all goes away.

    Philosophy of Religion. particularly Christian Philosophy, and Philosophy of Art and Aesthetics - exactly where you will find discussions of grace if you bother to look.

    I suppose an argument can be elegant, so it could be "graceful" in that sense but there is no religious sense of "grace" in philosophy.  Philosophy is based on logic but logic can be beautiful sometimes.

    P.S. - defining words clearly is very important for philosophy, and "grace" has more than one definition.
