The ‘elephant in the room’ when discussing ‘theological reform’ is this: Considering that the entire history, of Christology, from even before the very beginnings of an institutional ‘church’ has been riven with ‘theological disputes’ many of which remain unresolved and swept under the ecclesiastic rug, out of sight out of mind; but the question remains, always there but never spoken: Is theology even a valid human intellectual endeavor or just the extreme of human intellectual vanity?

For if the foundations of ‘tradition’ are all theological, that being a human intellectual interpretation of scriptural materials, WHAT has been revealed by God?
