Christianity and Pynchon

[Dr. Concrescence]

Unlike Judaism Modern 'Christian' faith is not passed
through the Mother, I Was Raised a Lutheran and
currently am an idol worshipping Umbandist High
Priest-With a host of 'genuine' experiences to
supplant the empty 'faith' of my fore-fathers (Do I
believe any of what I just said? Maybe- But It is
obvious that you have a need to to see importance in
Pynchon's supposed Christianity and Puritan Fascism-
Great- and that's nice;-), so I no longer consider
myself a X=ian although I am occasionaly sympathetic
to the modern gnostic revival- So What makes this
supposed 'fact' so important? In "Another Road Side
Attraction" They Raid the Vatican- Does this mean the
authors catholic roots are important? Maybe- I just
don't care...
