Vitz suggests that postmodern thought has been largely an act of “creative destruction” serving as an “expose, in the best sense of the term.” The result is “a much large intellectual framework within which everyone, including Christians, can function. It provides a much bigger framework than that which existed fifty or a hundred years ago when the enlightenment rationalistic understanding of life was all that was seriously accepted. Retrospectively, the modern worldview can now be seen as a much narrower and more limited one than its adherents were willing to admit.”
