I'm not seeking to "stifle" anyone, Doug. I would simply prefer not to have

> Re textual support for the notion of Pynchon as a religious writer

There is no question that Pynchon writes *about* many and varied religions.
This, however, does not qualify him as a "religious writer" in the sense you
are attempting to imply.

The distinction is easy to comprehend. Because he writes about homosexuality
doesn't make him a homosexual writer.
