And when she described this, I felt a welling up emotion - maybe the joy of recognition - because at heart it's about preserving the delicate mystery of diversity, letting the biosphere exist without smashing it with the heavy machinery of false intimacy and self-centeredness. It's about letting my (white liberal Christian) anxiety sit there and transform into something else eventually, when I cannot insert myself everywhere. It's about the hope for human community contained in Sampson's "Unconditional Kindness to Strangers" and [I've said this about 20 million times before] Judith Butler's "Precarious Existence." It's about escaping the need to be connected by more than shared vulnerability.

postscript on context
Today I had a brief conversation with my professor, which helped shift my logjam. The question of articulating a context other than one's own is about why a person is looking at the 'other' context. In my example, I was complexifying my judgment about the bishops. The skill in seeing a context other than one's own is about standing back - not seeing difference as a problem. It's about, as she said, seeing the ancient Israelite culture as the alien culture that it is - and the Bible is forever mysterious because of it. We do not know what they were writing because we do not know their world. Which doesn't mean there is nothing sacred that can be gleaned, but it changes the patterns of light that we shed on the worlds of Bible - and what it sheds on our own world. It's about acknowledging the difficulties inherent in relationships bridging difference. It's about not trying to create a false closeness based in false similarity (her critique of CPE interactions where both chaplain and patient are placed in a common context that hides their unique social and home, etc situations).
