Good Freaking God :). Funny, Daniel, thanks. The second link -- the
randomly generated postmodernist criticism, I had heard about before.
Overall the essay is incomprehensible, but individual sentences can make
sense. It wasn't pure random generation - the words still follow a
specific syntax.

RE: the third link, you really have to watch out for Evangelical
handlings of deconstruction/postmodernism. Most are blowing smoke out
their arses. The link you provided seemed better than most, though, but
ended right where I expected it to. Evangelicals tend to mistake their
own theology of linguistic meaning for Biblical truth and not recognize
its secular, philosophical, and relatively recent underpinnings. There
was a recent article in Christianity Today online about Derrida that was
_very_ good, though. I'll try to hunt it down if you can't find it.
