What religion is about, however, remains obscure for it is never quite there - nor is it exactly not there.
Religion is about what is always slipping away.
It is, therefore, impossible to grasp what religion is about - unless, perhaps, what we grasp is the impossibility of grasping. Even when we think we have it surrounded, religions eludes us. This strange slipping away is no mere disappearance but a withdrawal that allows appearances to appear. Though never here, what religion is about is not elsewhere. We have barely begun to appreciate the myriad ways in which virtual culture is about religion.
