Summary/Abstract: Secularization appears to be one of the vital elements in modern theology. Its sense for understanding faith and Christian life is tremendous, thus it demands deep reflection. Changes that have occurred in culture during the last century have made it essential to consider a parameter of secularization as a part of modern theology. Harvey Cox’s view includes both deep reflection upon secularization and post-secularization theology. He analyzes the phenomenon of secularization from a theological perspective, placing his theology in a context of secularized world. The basic postulate for post-secularization theology is a relation between theological reflection and life and experience of different people and Christian communities.
