Yup. It's funny that the perceived need to think about religion is so purely a reaction to fundamentalism. Once again, the opposition insists on remain attached to its oppositionism. And it's not just obvious maroons like Robert Jensen, Parenti, Hitchens, and Dawkins. Zizek has his Christian legacy, Badiou has his Paul, Critchley declaims about Christ.
