Abstract:

Ebrahim Moosa offers several objections to my attack on postmodernism. I maintain that those objections presuppose a postmodern stance rather than present a defense of it. At heart, Moosa, as a consummate postmodernist, is interested in what a theory reveals about the theorist, whereas I, as a recalcitrant modernist, am interested in what a theory reveals about religion.
