That's a great list. Did you find Marion understandable? I've been thinking about doing my Master's thesis on his views of idolatry (the idol and the distance) but his writing is a bit daunting.

You know, I barely understood a word of what he is saying. and now i'm reading ricour and it's the same thing. I do have a hunch that they are important, but I don't know enough to really deal with it. He would be a challenge that's for sure!
