As I understand postmodernism, it is an attempted to move away from the modernism movement which focuses on facts and science for inspiration in art and religion. Postmodernism describes a time when people began to realize they need something more than scientific facts to live their life by. The realization then came that even though we are able to prove certain things through science that may disprove certain religious beliefs, it is those religious beliefs(in some cases) that give a person reason for living. Postmodernism is the movement that created a push toward a more spiritual and throughout provoking ideal that contrasted with the modernism movement of certainty and scientific fact.
This push toward a postmodernism was felt through in many different walks of life such as architectures, painting, home living, religion, science, and many other ways. I feel as though postmodernism is a topic in this class because we may be theorizing about what type of movement we are in currently or will be experiencing in future as technology and the age of mass media becomes ever bigger in society. And the profession we are currently looking to become part of may not exist in a few years.
