Referral Theology: The Freedom to Believe and the Freedom from Judgement

Abstract

Referral Theology presents a novel analytical linguistic framework designed to resolve the classical paradox of theological discourse: the inevitability of human cognition producing finite God constructs versus the prohibition against idolatry for doing so. The Tetragrammaton name of God is decrypted as a unique grammatical formulation for the pure assertion of being, implicitly infinite. The name of God is presented as an unlanded referrer, using a stable token to execute a flawless performance concerning that for which we possess, by definition of being finite, no experience or data, ultimately conveying that elemental existence only supports silent observation. This paper critically evaluates negative theology, where it succeeds and where it fails. The resulting model yields an existential sanctuary, securing both the freedom to believe and the freedom from judgement.
