Wonderful. Now have someone wanting to take issue with me saying PoMo threatens modernity but he doesn't know what modernity means.
OK, but it is about the phenomenon we now know as postmodernism, is it? Incredulity to metanarratives, cultural constructivism, relativity?

I don't see that as unique or even particular to postmodernism - it can be found in a variety of anti-rationalist ideologies.
