Death of God e-bog

"e;The most exciting theological book I have read in many years. In some ways, it is a parallel to Karl Barth's Romerbrief."e;-RUDOLF BULTMANN"e;An unhesitating, unflinching analysis of an age which, Vahanian believes, has no concerns even to deny God...a cultural analysis of the religious, political, artistic, literary and societal movements of our era."e;-PAUL RAMSEY"e;In his preface to The Death of God, Paul Ramsey, Professor of Religion at Princeton university, explains that we are now in the second phase of the period post-mortem Dei-the first phase was anti-Christian, ours is post-Christian...Vahanian's message has to do with the 'dishabilitation' of the Christian tradition, with its replacement by bourgeois religiosity and a theology of 'immanentism,' with the desperate effort of Western culture to shake off the 'crippling shackles' of a superannuated piety."e;The quality of mind which enters into this book is unique and fascinating...Vahanian is a fierce but eloquent prophet of the Lord."e;-ROBERT E. FITCH, New York Times Book Review
