flatline and exile theology

The "theology of the death of God" (Henry Corbin's phrase) is the theology of the Man-created world, historical, linear, flatlined. Flatline theology, which recognizes Man as Theos, as God, has no working concept of Origin. Flatline theology advocates death by consumption as the holiest communion. 

The "theology of the exiled" (Corbin) is the theology of those who exist in vertical realms while walking in a flatlined world. They know that they are in God and God is in them. God is neither dead nor sleeping. Resurrection is a continuous process.
