Arguing that the reframing of Christianity within the system of a "constructive postmodernism," best articulated by Alfred North Whitehead, can and should lead to a theology that can usefully address matters of public policy, Cobb (Claremont School of Theology) discusses where such a philosophy leads. Clearly drawing a line between his philosophy and "deconstructive postmodernism," he argues that it necessary to recognize pluralism in a way that does not posit an absolute moral relativism. Cobb's pluralism contends that at the heart of pluralism is the recognition that differences among beliefs are more often complementary that contradictory. The implications of a postmodern Christianity for cultural diversity, public education, gender and sexuality, the economy, race, and class are sketched in later chapters. Annotation c.
