Imagination is a fascinating topic of interest and debate today. The deeply significant issues of the real and the unreal have never been as evident as in our own cultural context. Discerning between fact and fantasy, objectivity and subjectivity in our post-modern setting, means we have to deal with a new blurring of categories, which may threaten older precision crafted paradigms and previously settled ways of thinking. So be it. Engaging the challenges of ancient, modern, and post-modern thought, for better or worse, calls for a reassessment of the role of imagination in our understanding of God, ourselves, and the world. That which has been previously assumed to be real or unreal may not be the case.
