ABSTRACT: This paper establishes an eschatological criterion as a principle of comprehending history through its totalization. We argue that the opposition between relativism and reason can be fully grasped only from an eschatological standpoint. Postmodernism was associated with “post-historical” relativism epitomized in deconstruction as dissolution of all criteria. But the eschatological meaning of postmodernity is ultimately an epochal confusion that will culminate in a “church without an essence”. To more concretely thematize such a church we devised a political-theological analysis of the Apocalypse.
Keywords: Eschatology, Postmodernism, Relativism, Church, Deconstruction, Ratzinger, Antichrist, Apocalypse, global government, watchfulness.
