		<description><![CDATA[Does postmodernism herald the end of Christian apologetics as we know it? Does the argument for God&#8217;s existence go out of the door as &#8216;so yesterday&#8217;? I think we need to distinguish between cultural postmodernism and philosophical postmodernism. The latter is self-refuting in that it absolutely claims that absolute claims to truth do not exist, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=apologiachristi.com&amp;blog=6437779&amp;post=392&amp;subd=apologiachristi&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The first question that comes to mind when thinking about hell is &#8216;why the hell&#8217; it needs to exist. It hardly helps in convincing people of their sin; it seems not too helpful a tool to bring the &#8216;Good News&#8217; to a postmodern world. An eternal conscious punishment seems rather harsh.
