Understanding the Effects of Deconstructionism On Christianity and Society

By Ken Kapreilian

This is the collegiate edition for 2019 and is being used in the Emeritus program at College of Marin. All societies have pillars on which they were founded on. When these pillars start getting removed then that society will change. There are societies that are founded on the pillars of the Bible and Christianity. As such, we come to understand that the effects of deconstructionism on what once was a predominant Christian society, has very far-reaching effects. When this occurs, this deconstruction by extension brings into play a redefinition of morality. As such, the following question needs to be asked;

What is the effect when a new morality for Christianity becomes intertwined with the “so-called” restrictions of the old morality of Christianity?

The answer is that Biblical morality is now replaced with a new morality by the ideology of deconstructionism. So now the integration of the ideology of deconstructionism and this new morality is then imposed on Christianity. Then by extension, the deconstruction of Christianity is now imposed on the church by the world wide pandemic.This deconstruction plays out within the church as the ideas of accepting the new morality and what is essential has now become a source of conflict. Thus this changes the behavior of people within that society.

Introduction

Deconstructionism and the Attempted Redefinition of Christianity by the World Wide Pandemic

All societies have pillars on which they were founded on. When these pillars start getting removed then that society will change. There are societies that are founded on the pillars of the Bible and Christianity. As such, we come to understand that the effects of deconstructionism on what once was a predominant Christian society, has very far-reaching effects. When this occurs, this deconstruction by extension brings into play a redefinition of morality.  As such, the following question needs to be asked;

What is the effect when a new morality for Christianity becomes intertwined with the so-called restrictions of the old morality of Christianity?

The answer is that Biblical morality is now replaced with a new morality by the ideology of deconstructionism. So now the integration of the ideology of deconstructionism and this new morality is then imposed on Christianity. Then by extension, the deconstruction of Christianity is now imposed on the church by the world wide pandemic. This deconstruction plays out within the church as the ideas of accepting the new morality and what is essential has now become a source of conflict. Thus this changes the behavior of people within that society.

When you look at the origins of morality you have to approach this subject with one of two perspectives. Either you believe that morality is self-endowed and completely subjective based on situational ethics or you believe that morality is a part of God's creation. Depending on your perspective, this is going to have a direct result on how you view God, religion and other aspects of your life. If your perspective is that morality exists only within the human experience without any reference to God, then everything is to be understood as the morality of an individual’s sense of right and wrong.  The author
