The New Iconoclasm and the Integrity of the Faith

Abstract

“Our main contention here is that the Christian problematic is an entity, that it has a history, that its continuity consists more decisively in perduring frameworks of interrogation than in definitive answers designed to exhaust or conclude reflection—and that the process of development is very far from finished. … If the hard core questions focus on God and man and Jesus Christ, surely it is significant that, although the church has achieved stable frames of inquiry (dogmata) about God and Jesus Christ, its explorations into man have never got so far.”
