Revisiting Christianity in the Re-modernities Context Sample Clauses

Revisiting Christianity in the Re-modernities Context. How can we re-locate Christianity and theology in our contemporary discourse? Can we bring in a Christian faith that will once again inspire and impact on the formation of the human being as reflexive agent? Certainly, Christianity and Xxxxxxxxx thinking have struggled with the disturbing ideas created by both the modern theorem and the postmodern deconstruction, but in different ways. The essentials of the argument are set out in Table 2. Its contents must, however, be approached with caution, bearing in mind that the distinctions illustrated are essentially fluid, and do not postulate a set of necessary relationships. In the case of classical modernity, secular certainty was in complete antithesis to religious faith; for example: scientific rationalism vs religious exclusive truth; subjectivity vs religious authority; human progress vs God’s providence.

Ironically, however, postmodernism is also averse to an atheism 129 Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxx, Reflexive Modernization. that makes absolute, totalistic claims. In this sense, conviction or confidence itself is condemned as dogmatic. As a result, the postmodern deconstruction of truth and subject made it move from substantive grounds of how to live well, to a non-committed aesthetic style of life. <Table 2> Distinction of Religion between Modernity, Postmodernity and Re- modernities.130 Modern Postmodern Re-modern (Post-postmodern) Religion or Religious Institution Religiosities and Spirituality Reflexive religions Monopoly on truth / Exclusive truth narratives Relative truth Denial of universal truth Re-construction of truth from the events Institutional churches / Morphological fundamentalism Varied forms of the sacred Morphological deconstruction Institutional religion + Individualized religion Political religion + Privatized religion Cultural religion + Political religion Privatized religion Socio-political religion (public) + Privatized religion Religious obligation Industrialization of religion / Culturification of religious industry Religious responsibility Progress Healing, Well-being Well-doing Secularization Secularities Post-secular Anti-religious / De-centring of the religious narratives, but also of the secular Religion as an option Ath...
