An ordained Episcopal priest, he was a Professor of religion at Temple University, Philadelphia for 22 years. He was a Director [NYT obituary says "Associate" ] of the Center of Ethics and Religious Pluralism at the Shalom Hartman Institute in Jerusalem. He died of cancer on June 18, 1998 at age 74.[1] Early lifeVan Buren was born and raised in Norfolk, Virginia. During World War II, he had served in the United States Coast Guard.[1] Van Buren attended Harvard College, from which he graduated with a bachelor's degree in government, in 1948. He then attended the Episcopal Theological School, and received a bachelor's in sacred theology in 1951. It was after this that he was ordained as an Episcopal priest in the Diocese of Massachusetts. He received a Th.D. in theology in 1957 from the University of Basel in Switzerland studying under Karl Barth.[1] A professor at Temple University, he was considered a leader of the "Death of God" school or movement, although he himself rejected that name for the movement as a "journalistic invention," and considered himself an exponent of "Secular Christianity."[1] Later, however, Van Buren expressed criticism of the approach that he and others had taken to accommodate the Christian faith to an increasingly secular culture. Writing in 1980, Van Buren stated: When our cultural two-dimentionality is taken uncritically as normative (as in my The Secular Meaning of the Gospel, 1963), however, when the patterns of our culture are glorified in as though they were themselves the norms of the Way (as in Harvey Cox's The Secular City, 1965), when indeed the faith of our secular culture is taken to be essentially identical with our own (as in David Tracy's Blessed Rage for Order, 1975), we have surely reached the point of unhappy confusion. ...
