If one accepts the basic premise of the sociology of knowledge - that
our truths are values, culturally produced and culturally relative - then theology becomes problematic. Theology
wishes
to retain disciplinary autonomy. but the sociology of knowledge does
not respect the boundaries that we erect between different kinds
of knowledge. It is this particular challenge that is addressed in this
most original book.

Dan
Frank argues that what is needed is a step-by-step re-evaluation of the
traditional theological affirmations in terms of these new cognitive
criteria, and theorizes that a new theology could be constructed by
critical reflection of the success and failures of modernity.
