Why Sista be messin wit the Devil

[Terrance]

Don't nobody don't know God can't tell me nothin bout no Adam and Eve
and all dat. 

This master narrative stuff misses the point. 
If we gonna go wit it, don't but two people really know what really
happen. And Sista don't know. Sista  is a fake. It ain myths whats
controlling, it's the people that keep tellin them when they ain got no
business (really that's all they got is business if you follow me) to be
tellin them.  Like a lot of folk in Vineland, while she lookin to
absolve herself and her Sistas of somethin somebody in his/her story
pinned on her, she lookin for somebody else to blame. Blame it all on
the Men. 
Now what we gonna do? The brother do the same thang they do. 

Another example of misreading Vineland: 

Totalizing Postmodernism:  
Master-narratives in Pynchon's Vineland
By Bruce A. Sullivan

Pynchon's most obvious critiques of master-narratives come in the form
of
Sister Rochelle's anecdotes. These anecdotes deconstruct various myths.
Myths
are master-narratives; they are mere stories that attempt to find truth
in
unexplainable phenomena. When myths are accepted and proliferated, they
become mechanisms of control. For instance, the Biblical creation myth
dictates that Eve ate the forbidden fruit and tempted Adam to do so as
well. Adam eats
the fruit, and hence, Paradise is lost to humankind. The misogyny in the
creation
myth is obvious; the myth allows for the oppression of women by blaming
the
fall of humankind on Eve (and by extension, all women). Sister
Rochelle's first
anecdote rewrites the creation myth .... 

This may be how Sista reads the bible or how Bruce A. Sullivan reads it
but it ain in the bible. It's simply not in the book. 

It is definitely worth looking at. What does it actually say? Perhaps
the most important myth in the West and most people have never bothered
to read it. Pynchon did.
