ABSTRACT
The postmodern debates over religion have taken on various new dimensions and surprising directions – or, at least, awareness of postmodernism and/in religion has increased – since an earlier and shorter version of this chapter was written. A larger picture of the dimensions and directions of postmodernism clearly reveals significant disagreements between contemporary philosophers of religion, post-secular philosophers (i.e., ‘radically orthodox’ Christian theologians), postcolonial theorists on religion and post-post-secular philosophers; the latter include thinkers who write explicitly after the initial postcolonial critiques of philosophy of religion, but also after the ‘religious’ and theological’ turns in Continental and Anglo-American philosophies, respectively.1
