Street "... Have you ever been a Christian?" GR.325

[Terrance]

"Did you ever in the street, see a man that you knew, in the instant,
MUST be Jesus Christ--not hoped he was, or caught some resemblance--but
KNEW. The Deliverer, returned..." 

No Return. 

This Enzian talking about his love for Weissmann. 

"If the Rocket was his life, then I would belong to the Rocket." 325

Routinization of charisma.

Enzian, his birth, his baptism, his temptation, his quest, is compared
with both Moses/Christ. In fact he recognizes that people are looking to
him as a Deliverer, as a Christ/Moses and he rejects this. The Herero
have been infected by the Christian sickness. 

If one argues that the Text (implied author of GR) is atheist or
endorses a negative view (say a Freudian view) of religion, one would
have to explain why the Herero religion (prior to its infection with
Christian sickness) is presented in such a positive way. 

What about those WASPs in buckled black? 

The AnaBaptist movement?
