The theological origins of modernity
Critical Review: A Journal of Politics and Society 13 (1-2):1-30 (1999)
Abstract
Most critiques of modernity rest on an inadequate understanding of its complexity. Modernity should be seen in terms of the question that guides modern thought. 77ns is the question of divine omnipotence that arises out of the nominalist destruction of Scholasticism. Humanism, Reformation Christianity, empiricsim, and rationalism are different responses to this question.Links
