'''Postmodernism''' is a an antichristian, far-left, 20th century [[worldview]] and [[academic]] movement characterized by a belief in the lack denial of an objective truth, and which asserts that assertions of objective knowledge are essentially impossible. A strong part of postmodernist thought is an intentional departure from traditional approaches that had previously been dominant. Postmodernity has influenced many disparate fields of study, such as architecture, history, literary criticism, art, and others.
The term "postmodernism" comes from the causal relationship the movement has to [[modernism]], rather than a temporal relationship. Both movements coexist today.
Critics of postmodernism include those who believe in an objective truth that can be explored by human means, among others.
 
==Postmodernism, antiamericanism, and reverse racism==
Postmodernism is routinely used by academics to attack American interventionist foreign policy, claiming that democratic society is only an aspect of western society, which should not be "forced" upon other peoples, whose cultures may be despotic or theocratic. In this regard, postmodernism is simply a euphemism for [[moral relativism]] (itself a euphemism for [[sin denial]]).
 
It is likewise used to attack and condemn the work and culture of white males, by claiming that any such cultural output, be it art, music, literature, etc., is patriarchal and imperialistic.
 
== Antichristian ==
Postmodernists seek to denigrate [[Christianity]] and its accomplishments by claiming that it is only an aspect of western culture, and not inherently true. Likewise they denigrate the strong Christian [[scientific]] tradition, and attempt to marginalize Christian historical figures such as [[Isaac Newton]].
