Respond to Sunshine's statement : "We have already largely lost the idea of the image of God in Western culture, leaving us with a free-floating conception of human rights devoid of any overarching framework to support these rights. We have so internalized cultural relativism that we are on the verge of losing many of our culture's distinctive features in the name of a pluralism stripped of core values. We have already largely given up the idea that life is an inalienable right, as shown by the culture's acceptance of abortion, infanticide, and euthanasia. We are losing the right to property, the right to keep what we legitimately earn. And we have turned liberty--the freedom to pursue virtue--into license, into freedom from restraint." What is postmodernism? Describe postmodern both philosophically and culturally. Critique postmodernism from a Christian point of view. In what specific ways can you live out Christian virtues in a postmodern world?
