Toward a New Modernism

This book presents a neo-modernist outlook of the Bible, God, and Christ that challenges many of the assumptions underlying most contemporary theological perspectives.

On the basis of a thoroughly relativistic empirical-rational pragmatism, a form of theistic naturalism and a radical Christology are set forth that proposes that living Christians should regard themselves as the functional authorities who determine what religious and moral views are normative for today based on the best they know up to now from all sources, the Bible being central among them.
