“There is a notion that complete impartiality is the most fitting and indeed the normal disposition for true exegesis , because it guarantees complete absence of prejudice.

But now, we can quite calmly describe it as merely comical.” IdeasAchieveNormalPrejudiceNotionAbsenceTheologyGuaranteesThreatenedDispositionFittingProtestantsShort TimeComicalImpartialityExegesis Book:Church Dogmatics: The doctrine of the word of God (2 pts.)

“The adjuration to be "normal" seems shockingly repellent to me; I see neither hope nor comfort in sinking to that low level. I think it is ignorance that makes people think of abnormality only with horror and allows them to remain undismayed at the proximity of "normal" to average and mediocre.
