About this product
Product Information
Following his successful Who's Afraid of Postmodernism? leading Christian philosopher James K. A. Smith introduces the philosophical sources behind postliberal theology. Offering a provocative analysis of relativism, Smith provides an introduction to the key voices of pragmatism: Ludwig Wittgenstein, Richard Rorty, and Robert Brandom. Many Christians view relativism as the antithesis of absolute truth and take it to be the antithesis of the gospel. Smith argues that this reaction is a symptom of a deeper theological problem: an inability to hor the contingency and dependence of our creaturehood. Appreciating our created finitude as the condition under which we kw (and were made to kw) should compel us to appreciate the contingency of our kwledge without sliding into arbitrariness. Saying It depends is t the equivalent of saying It's t true or I don't kw. It is simply to recognize the conditions of our kwledge as finite, created, social beings. Pragmatism, says Smith, helps us recover a fundamental Christian appreciation of the contingency of creaturehood. This addition to an acclaimed series engages key thinkers in modern philosophy with a view to ministry and addresses the challenge of relativism in a creative, original way.
