Pluralistic Religion Education in a Postmodern World.
Melchert, Charles
Religious Education, v90 n3-4 p346-59 Sum-Fall 1995
Maintains that neither postmodernism nor cultural pluralism are antithetical to biblical texts. Locates postmodernist open-ended thinking in many of the enigmatic proverbs and other wisdom texts. Reveals similarities, and at times historical connections, between much of the Bible and various Mediterranean cultures. (MJP)
