ChP26: Christian Philosophy: Between Christian and Post-Christian Worldviews

The term ‘post-Christian’ is increasingly appearing in philosophical and cultural discourse, employed to describe various phenomena that supposedly follow on after Christianity. Most often, the term is used to describe a contemporary world in which Christianity either is no longer the dominant religion or is not recognised as such in the way that it was until recently. At the same time, although there is a post-Christian world, the Christian world has not ended. The problem of the ‘post-Christian picture of reality’ therefore provokes discussion amongst both supporters and opponents of Christianity – especially because what is ‘post-Christian’ cannot be understood in isolation from Christianity itself.

Submissions will centre on the following themes, while also considering additional relevant topics: christian philosophy, christianity and post christian philosophy.
