In Our Own Image is a work of comparative philosophical theology.
It is a study of the roles anthropomorphism and apophaticism play
in the construction of conceptual models of ultimate reality.
Leading scholar Wesley J. Wildman considers whether we create our
ideas of God. He offers a comparative analysis of three major
classes of ultimacy models, paying particular attention to the way
those classes are impacted by anthropomorphism while tracing their
relative strengths and weaknesses. Wildman provides a constructive
theological argument on behalf of an apophatic understanding of
ultimate reality, showing how this understanding subsumes,
challenges, and relates ultimacy models from the three classes
being compared. He describes and compares competing ultimacy
models, fairly and sympathetically. The conclusion is that all
models cognitively break on the shoals of ultimate reality, but
that the ground-of-being class of models carries us further than
the others in regard to the comparative criteria that matter most.
