That About Wraps it up for Postmodern Theology

Mieke Bal in her essay, "Postmodern Theology as Cultural Analysis", writes the following: "A postmodern theology, then, need not decide whether God exists or not, and which one God has privileges over which other Gods in a multiple society."

I checked Wiki and the good news is that Mieke Bal is still with us and apparently still flourishing. I had a panic that she might have been run over while deconstructing the semiotics of a zebra crossing.

  2. ...whereas, of course, you stand in the great tradition of those who believe in one holy, catholic and apostolic church, a position akin to declaring that the 17-ton double decker bus heading towards you at 45mph is a mere figment of the imagination and will vanish like the morning dew...

    Charlii, go get the shovel.
