It's one thing to think, as I do, that American Calvinism failed to properly address racism in its ranks
It's another thing to analyze that failure using postmodernism and Critical Theory
If Dr. Bradley thinks the PCA survives the deconstructionists blade he's deeply mistaken

If Dr. Bradley thinks the Nicene Creed or the westminster confession or any other historic Christian creed of any kind survives postmodern analysis he's out to lunch.

Racism within American evangelicalism (particularly among the historically white denominations), but when the postmodern methods he accepts get turned on HIS theology, and HIS church, my guess is he will not accept it's judgement.

Focus on men is, on a postmodern analysis, nothing more unfettered patriarchy.
And all his views on men are merely attempts to restore male domination and patriarchy under the banner of concern for men.
When that hits, and it will, my guess is he will not like the postmodernism

The postmodernism will eat everything, and when Dr. Bradley sees that even his "men should fight evil" will be called militarism and male domination (claiming to "fight" evil, or declare "war" in the "battle" against evil will be problematized as using a militaristic paradigm)
His focus on men will be problematized for marginalizing the voices and stories of women and Non-binary/trans folx because his focus on men "centers" straight, cisgendered, male voices "whose story has told."
There's no end to the ways his work will be problematized...

His claim that boys need Dads will be problematized as sexist (it implies a man can do something a woman can't), homophobic (it imples two women can't do the same job as a straight couple), and transphobic (it excludes trans men who were assigned female at birth)
Shall I go on?

There is no stopping point, and anyone who lets the postmodernism in will soon find themselves on the wrong end of it's bite.
