For two centuries and more our culture has been secular, and no
religious doctrine now plays a constitutive part in any established
branch of knowledge. Yet if God is dead, he won't lie down, and
reminders of the old faith still pervade our language, the built
environment, our art and our literature. Most important, themes of
the old theology are currently returning to us in new and strange
guises. Thus God, the strict Judge who searches our hearts and
demands inner integrity, returns in the critical thinking which
makes everyone trained in it 'his own hardest taskmaster'. Again,
the biblical idea that the world is made by the utterance of
language returns in modern poetry and linguistic philosophy. By
assembling such reminders, Don Cupitt shows that a surprising
amount of traditional Christian belief - including a new Grand
Narrative, and a non-metaphysical theology - is currently returning
to us in secular form. Don Cupitt is a Fellow of Emmanuel College,
Cambridge.
