Straddling Modernism and Postmodernism

Abstract

“Why has what Cobb positions as the two basic forms of postmodern theology, process and deconstruction, made so little impact on theological education, to say nothing of grasping the imagination and loyalty of either the church's faithful or its disaffected? Why has process theology not lived up to its potential within the church, which has devoured ‘group process’ (and been devoured by it) while turning down process thought? Indeed, why are both process and deconstruction so out of touch with the church?”
