If I Had Gyges Ring ...
... I'd sit in today on Discard the Name's oral comps with Stanley Hauerwas, Michael Hardt, Ken Surin and Reinhard Hütter. Surin basically left Duke's religion department for the lit. department years ago when he no longer bought the Resurrection and fully embraced Deleuzian immanence. Hütter is a German Lutheran turned down-the-line Thomist who is not given to letting things slide and who will not be fond of Discard's marriage of Deleuzian ontology and Yoder. Sparks could fly since Hütter is perhaps Hauerwas' most prized student while Yoder is absolutely the most important figure in Hauerwas' canon. Then again, perhaps it will be unremarkable and just another hurdle crossed.Either way, good luck Discard!
