This book establishes the necessary integration of theological
knowledge with theological ethics. It does this as a response to
the postmodern critique of Christianity, as exemplified in Rorty
and Lyotard. They argue that any claim to know God is necessarily
tyrannical. Contemporary responses to such postmodern thinking
often fail to address adequately the ethical critique that is made.
This book redresses that balance by suggesting that our knowedge of
God and love of the Other are so intimately connected that we
cannot have one without the other. In the absence of love, then, we
simply do not know God. Justin Thacker proposes that an effective
theological response to postmodernity must address both knowledge
and ethics in an integrated fashion as presented in this book.
