Oh, that is interesting. I think I'll have to pass the link on to my dad. I encountered Eagleton in both my litcrit and pomo classes in college, but I don't remember that much about him. He's more articulate than I had remembered. I can certainly tell he's a Marxist, but on the whole he has a pretty good understanding of religion. It's nice to be understood. :D
I remeber finding Eagleton more sensible than an awful lot of the fashionable critics, but that may not be saying all that much... Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised by the article.
