Substance of the Work

The substance of this present work is liberation semiology. The world's own principle is love (agape).

Our Fellow Creatures

Our fellow creatures are co-symbols of emancipation from human violence.

Creation and Modern Thinkers

Creation is not, as influential modern thinkers envision, mere material, mere nature, to commodify and dominate for the freedom of an exclusive constituency of our species.

Ecological Crisis

The ecological crisis emerges from a tragic misfit between experiments with secular sovereignty and the continuance of Christian historicity.

Paths Forward

Either the Christian form of life (of time) is replaced, revealing a new ecological worldview, or we revive Christian sovereignty as a creative fit with the actuality of Christian historicity. This work wagers on the latter: Christian civilization is coextensive with ecological civilization.
