A very inspiring blog entry from South Africa. I encourage you to follow the link and read the arguments in detail, but here is a summary of the main points from the entry itself:
So, the long term chances of survival of Postmodernism are not good.
Western ideologies are rising and falling faster; Western racial
dominance is being challenged and the new leadership will not be so
Postmodern; Generally, the more postmodern the church, in the long term
the more they shrink; Demographically, postmodernists have fewer
children and will go into exponential decline; Postmodernism is
intellectually inconsistent with itself and with conscience and reality;
the social damage of postmodernism will be exposed; the leading
intellectual philosophers of the world are losing interest in
postmodernism; finally, postmodernism itself should be seen as just God
judging and handing over people who fail to glorify him to foolishness
and degradation. Postmodernists exude an arrogance that they have
history on their side as did communists before that. But generally once
an empire with the myth of world conquest starts to decline it does so
fast.
I love the observation that post-modernists and liberation theologians are already bored with their own ideas! The longer version is well worth your time: Why Post Modernism Won't Win
