This subject is tiresome and has been done to death over the years, and
leads nowhere. People are talking past each other, as ever. I should stay
out of it. But I will make an appeal to the text.

At issue here is whether or not Severian is in any meaningful sense a
manifestation of the Christ, rather than someone who merely has Christ-like,
or Christic (as I believe someone here once termed it) qualities. The
difference is unimportant to some, but to Christians (which I am not) it is
paramount.



Amen.  I disagee only with "to Christians it is paramount."  Most Christians are concerned with the message of Christ, not hair-splitting theological arguments.

Best wishes,
Jack
