"The reason I want nothing to do with postmodernism (in all its current forms) is because they are pretending to be at odds with modernity. They are pretending to run away from home. They are pretending that having a spat with a fellow priest of Baal is the same thing as razing the temple.
"You want something to describe a full-throated rejection of modernity and all its idols? Do you want to reject modernity, and its cheap knock-offs, like postmodernity? Tired of rejecting the idol of Britney Spears in the name of Christin[a] Aguilera? Tired of casting out the demons of Mammon with the devils of Money? Tired of rejecting this kind of secular neutrality for that kind of secular neutrality? Tired of banishing Howdy on the authority of Doody?
"Then you don't want postmodernism; you want Christendom. And if you want Christendom, you should pray for Christendom, as the Lord taught us to pray, saying — 'Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.'"
- Doug Wilson, "Pray for Christendom"

If you think Doug Willson is postmodern you obviously don't understand philosophy. Wilson and postmodernism are opposites as anyone with any education would immediately recognize. I used Wilson as an example in my adult Sunday school as someone who is leading the way against postmodernism in the church. He's able to explain it in a way everyone can appreciate and recognize the blindness of that philosophy.
