@lukeburgis 1/ Wonderful! While we're on that tack, I'm curious if you were ever stumbled across James Alison's breathtakingly perceptive contribution to the Presentation for the Colloquium on Mimetic Theory and Islam at Heythrop College in 2013?

The problem is not principally one of cognitive inadequacy faced with incomparable hugeness, but of a pattern of desire unaware of its own hostility. Anyone who helps me better to understand God whose loving communication with me is a certain breaking through my own structural hostility to God, whose befriending of me starts with me as his enemy, and anyone who helps my Church live out this discovery of a completely unknown love which traverses our hostility, is my friend.
