Description: The bold paradigm he uses to articulate the framework for a revolution in religious theory comes from semiotics--namely, the problem of the sign and the singularity or event horizon from which a sign is generated.

Review Quotes:

An excellent and provocative book. Raschke is one of the original American postmodern theologians, and he is a brilliant thinker and religious and cultural theorist. This book breaks new ground in religious thought and theory, and it is one of the most original, intense, and dazzling encounters with these ideas that exists.

--Clayton Crockettf, University of Central Arkansas, author of A Theology of the Sublime
