I just came across this quote and wished I'd found it a couple of months ago. I had been trying, for the Lord's prayer book, to express the idea of the Kingdom of God as a present reality anticipating God's Future in terms continuous with, and yet somewhat discontinuous from, the workings of this present age. I settled for writing in terms of the Kingdom coming into the present 'in patches'. The Gibson quote would have been a real boon.
Quotations on the future: "'The future is already here - it's just unevenly distributed.' - William Gibson."
Nous like scouse or French -oui? We wee whee all the way ... to mind us a bunch of thunks. Too much information? How could that be?
