Comment of the Day: Radical Orthodoxy

From Tom on Radical Orthodoxy:

'Having read a pile of RO books, I would like to agree with the characterization of it as "liberal Protestantism." It would probably be fairer to call it an anti-modern version of liberal Protestantism. No doubt there are some intelligent people doing this work. But--and here's the important point--it really has nothing to do with Christian theology. They've produced almost no dogmatic theology. "Theology and Social Theory" is Platonism. It is very interesting and imaginative, to be sure, but it has nothing to do with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Or at least so far as I can tell.'
