A group of Christian bloggers have agreed to synchronise their blogs on 14
December 2006, and to all post something on Western syncretism.

My own offering is at:

and has links to the others.

Well, I can't claim to have put enough time into it to really understand your
paper, but I _loved_ the line:

So, plunging boldly into the pool of deconstruction,
and approaching Bantu prophets as a readerly, and not
a writerly text, I ward off the Sundkler-snake and
come up with the white earth

Down with Sundkler-snakes!

Deconstruction isn't deconstruction if you don't use the right words.

So.... deconstruction is gnostic? I knew there was a reason I didn't like
it....

LOL!

In Christ,

And gnosticism has just got to be the worst thing since sliced bread, so there
