Chapters

The conversation explores the origins and nature of authority, comparing the postmodern view of power as the only authority with the Judeo-Christian tradition, which posits voluntary self-sacrifice as the highest form of sovereignty.
  • Postmodern claim: There is no authority but power.
  • Judeo-Christian tradition: Proper sovereignty is voluntary self-sacrifice to true service.
  • Christ's example: Forgoes his ability to use authority, even in the face of mortal threat.
