Contemporary   theology   is   a   maze   of   conflicting   beliefs   and approaches.   The   present   situation   poses   unique   challenges   to evangelical  orthodoxy.  Using  typology  (as developed  by  social scientists),  this  article  surveys  a  limited  variety  of  intellectual constructs   around   which   the   greater   variety   of   contemporary theologies are built  The article analyses Toon’s four basic types of theology and evaluates their dangers, especially when their research methods  are  applied  in  a  total  manner.  The  article  concludes  with an appropriate Christian response to the contemporary challenges to evangelical orthodoxy posed by these approaches to theology
