I teach at a Christian institution. Christmas decorations have been up for nearly two weeks. Though it still bugs me, I’ve given up protesting a long time ago.

If God can change, we are in deep dodo.

Just heard him interviewed on Ross Douthat’s podcast. Worth listening to even if you don’t like RD.

If you want to see a case study of A-C socialism look at the Community of the Resurrection in South Africa, especially the influence of Trevor Huddleston on Desmond Tutu.

That “little book” series has some real gems. I look forward to checking out yours.

Reminds me of an old scene from All in the Family.
Archie to Meathead, who is looking for a house: "Try Joysey."
Meathead: "I HATE Joysey."
Archie: "EVERYBODY hates Joysey, but somebody's gotta live there."

They seem to operate in different universes, though to imagine a conversation would be interesting. When I was doing some work on Richard Rorty about a million years ago, I thought there might be some possibilities.

I remember back in the early 90s Hauerwas acknowledged deconstruction (though didn’t really engage it), especially the decentring of the sovereign subject. That’s as close to Berry-Derrida as I think we are likely to get.

I think it’s helpful as long as the viewer remembers that it is a two dimensional image superimposed on what is actually a three dimensional space.
