A DIALOG WITH THE PROCESS THEOLOGY OF JOHN B. COBB, JR. (5570 words)
Cobb recognizes that the modern consciousness is dominated by a vision of reality expressed in scientific thought which has rejected such basic features of the Christian tradition as the reality of God and His direction of the world.
Cobb is called a post-Enlightenment thinker because he has no desire to respond to the challenges from the vision of reality expressed in the modern consciousness by the mere reassertion of traditional orthodox positions.
Cobb's acceptance of the historical nature of reality is so thoroughgoing that he not only denies the validity of statements about the essence of Christianity similar to those made by the 19th-century theologians, but also denies the possibility that theology can ever attain a final statement.
