“We are living in a time when sensitivities are at the surface, often
vented with cutting words. Philosophically, you can believe anything so as you
do not claim it a better way. Religiously, you can hold to anything, so long as
you do not bring Jesus Christ into it. If a spiritual idea is eastern, it is
granted critical immunity; if western, it is thoroughly criticized. Thus, a
journalist can walk into a church and mock its carryings on, but he or she dare
not do the same if the ceremony is from eastern fold. Such is the mood at the
end of the twentieth century. A mood can be a dangerous state of mind, because
it can crush reason under the weight of feeling. But that is precisely what I
believe postmodernism best represents - a mood.”
