=== Conclusions: The Sacred, Indeterminacy, and Grace === | |||
There is still much left to explore. Both men redefine the realm of the ''sacred'' outside the boundaries of the Church. They also redefine the profane, in language and belief. There are theological precedents, but much of organized religion finds such redefinition problematic, particularly fundamentalists. For Hemingway, the sacred is found particularly in the natural world—rumors maybe of the original Garden? In Mailer, I am not sure: maybe the sacred is found in the moral struggle—the eternal battle between God and the Devil. | |||
