A brilliant dissection and reconstruction of the three major faith-based systems of belief in the world today - Christianity, Judaism and Islam - by one of the world's most articulate philosophers, Slavoj Zizek, in conversation with fellow Slovenian philosopher and priest Boris Gunjevic. God in Pain shows how each faith understands humanity and divinity - and how the differences between the faiths may be far stranger than they may at first seem. No library descriptions found. |

The above citation is quoted in God in Pain: Inversions of Apocalypse. It is quoted from a previous text. It isn't a response or rebuttal. The situation becomes clear, Slavoj Žižek and Boris Gunjevic haven't brought swords, they've come to riff. The text isn't structured as a debate but a call and response of ideas, each assertion elicits a germ which blossoms under the counterpart. The Gunjevic sections often left me clueless, he employs an obscure and specialized vocabulary and I often I felt the parsing wasn't worth the effort. His reading of Augustine's [b:City of God|25673|City of God (Penguin Classics)|Augustine of Hippo|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1348947938s/25673.jpg|5814] was noteworthy.
Zizek was his usual astonishing self. His rumination on Christ as atheist was remarkable and his essay on Derrida and animals has kept me thinking all afternoon. ( )
