Bøker av Gordon Dester Kaufman

In the symbolic world of Christianity, which millions have inhabited for centuries, is there room for modern and postmodern life-for today's real world of cultural relativism and religious pluralism, of scientific knowledge and historical understanding? This book draws these two worlds together in a full-scale reconception of Christian theology.

The most significant issue on the religious scene is whether it is possible, or even desirable, to believe in God. Kaufman's valuable study does not offer a doctrine of God, but instead explores why God is a problem for many moderns, the dimensions of that problem, and the inner logic of the notion of God as it has developed in Western culture.
