Historically affirming certain post-WWII constructive theologians
and social theorists, After Christendom unpacks theological
anomalies negatively denying the science underlying global warming,
wedge issues supporting systemic racism, and certain erroneous
decisions made by mainline churches and the evangelical movement.
Anomalies occur when something taken for granted no longer fits
current situations. The so-called mainline church and the
evangelical movement have not addressed or reconstructed their
theological anomalies. Caught inside cultural accommodation, the
more liberal mainline church often does not recognize its
historical tie to a pre-modern God, a transactional definition of
the crucifixion, and Jesus’ consignment to the cross. A companion
argument suggests that the evangelical movement’s inability to
respond to the pre-modern depiction of God as an omnipotent,
theocratic King helped provide sufficient votes for Trump’s
successful presidential run. Both groups inability to face such
theological anomalies rests within a belief in conservative
originalism, an unwillingness to move beyond European
Christendom’s earliest theological constructions. After
Christendom will be of particular interest to seminary, divinity
school, university, and college libraries, as well as seminary
students and professors, members of college and university
departments of religion, history, and political science, and
ministers and church leaders.
