Abstract
Theology in a popular sense has begun to come to honest grips with the technological and secular culture of our time. This is evidenced in the wide reading accorded to Harvey Cox’s The Secular City. A frequently repeated reaction to The Secular City is that it leaves one with a sense of having been freed — but without the reader being able to say just what it is that he has been freed from.
