[The ‘Postmodern’ Barth? The Word of God As True Myth]

“Whether it is called myth or saga, mythical speech is intrinsic to Christianity. If Christianity is true, it is as true myth.”

“One Christian thinker who grasped this point was C. S. Lewis. Compared to Barth, Lewis’s understanding of the history and problems of theology was slight, even simplistic. Despite his lack of theological training, however, his religious writings are marked by a keen and realistic sense of the mythical character of Christianity”
