Postmodernism and Evangelicalism

My recent book has the subtitle "A Postmodern Philosophy". To many, this is a red rag. Some may have seen the attack on me last week, through a powerful organisation. Behind the scenes, that was about religion. Today I finished reading Four Views on Christian Metaphysics. Sam Welbaum writes, "While postmodernism has a murky relationship with metaphysics, it has in many ways a hostile relationship to Christianity. The late 1990s through the early 2010s ... led to a wholesale rejection of postmodernism [as] something that the church needed to defend against, rather than to entertain or see as an ally." OBSERVATION: I noticed! Yet this view is not justified, writes Welbaum. Indeed, it is not.
