You Tube Theology

In this episode, Abigail Favale broaches the topic of postmodernism with Isaac Choi and Joel Mayward. How does it speak into theology, culture, and the arts? Can postmodernism coexist with modernism? Should everything that suggests a postmodern framework be rejected or feared?

Dr. Isaac Choi studied physics and chemistry at Harvard College. He received two master’s degrees from Princeton Theological Seminary in philosophy and theology, writing a thesis on divine action, quantum mechanics, and computer simulations. His doctoral dissertation in philosophy at the University of Notre Dame was on the nature and epistemology of expertise, centered on the question of how we should decide between disagreeing experts.
