"In the Infancy Gospel of Thomas, you see, Jesus as a Boy made
small, as you'd say, toy Golems out of Clay,-- Sparrows that flew,
Rabbits that hopp'd. Golem fabrication is integral to the Life of
Jesus, and thence to Christianity." (486.19-22)
And this somehow makes Pynchon an advocate of "ethical bio-technology"?
Thanks for clearing that up.
