This article represents a response to Andries van Aarde’s view on a ‘gateway to the future from a deconstructed past’, a paper presented as part of a conference, ‘Gateway to the Future from a Deconstructed Past’, commemorating the centennial anniversary of the Faculty of Theology at the University of Pretoria, 05–06 April 2017. The article argues that texts, and theology faculties as texts, are just as any structure or construction haunted by their sacred secret. Haunted by the ghosts in the texts from the past to be inspired for the calling of a theology and religion faculty in a time of populism and the ‘renaissance of (neo)nationalism’, according to Van Aarde. In being given the responsibility not only of responding to his contribution but also co-sharing the responsibility of the history of the faculty, the author says that he has a choice: he could respond to the letter of the text or I could be spooked by the ghosts of these texts, the haunting of the sacred secret, calling through Professor Van Aarde’s deconstruction of these texts. The author decides to seek to allow the ghosts of his text to call him. A call, as most calls, to which one can only respond: Here I am! Here I am in this moment (here) of history at this particular Faculty of Theology and Religion. This is a call to share the responsibility, the responsibility of being here and the responsibility of the being of a theology and religion faculty in a time of populism and (neo)nationalism, both globally and locally.

The Study of Religion as a Study of Discourse Construction RKD conference Humboldt University Berlin2020 •
Decolonial and postcolonial knowledge regimes are typically endorsed as multi-, inter-, and transdisciplinary in character. This is because a significant segment of the current encyclopedia of disciplines in the human and social sciences are products of the late 18th to early 20th century European imperial project, such that critique of the imperial project also entails envisioning new ways of knowing, constructing objects of study, and inventing new scholarly discourses. Thus, the definition of religion (as sui generis phenomenon), the invention of world religions, indeed the invention of religions such as Hinduism or the indigenous religions of Southern Africa (to name some historical examples), bear the imprint of the imperial and colonial context which gave rise to these discourses, but also constitute the sites of decolonial revisioning of scholarly discourses on these phenomena. This paper will reflect on contemporary theorizing of religion which embodies an explicit critique of the imperial project, specifically the work of Craig Martin, Russell McCutcheon, Kocku von Stuckrad, and for ancient religion, that of Jörg Rüpke, Guy Stroumsa, John Scheid, and Brent Nongbri. The golden thread that ties their work together is the concept of discourse. In this sense, I am proposing a discourse approach [in the Foucaultian, Bourdieuan, and Lefebvrean sense] is proposed that translates all the most prominent terminologies in the study of religion, like ritual, belief, faith, etc. into redescriptive moves. But simultaneously, all these terms, e.g., faith, beliefs, theologies, rituals, myths, ethics, sacred texts and narratives, secularisation, institutions and institutionalisation, modernism and modernity, postmodernism, gender, race-and nowadays one could add space and spatiality, also appear in more critical and interdisciplinary oriented theological studies. This brings about a most extraordinary situation where the outsider perspective and the insider perspective 'speak about' and 'speak with' the same set of vocabularies, and yet are practised either in isolation from each other as distinct theoretical and disciplinary bounded/defined study fields, or-the other and almost direct opposite-religious studies being performed in the context of theological study, situated in and offered by theological faculties. What complicates the matter is that religious studies as a disciplinary field of study is also conceived in some scholarly circles as what amounts to an insider, theological perspective, vide the current debates between Roberto Orsi and Russell McCutcheon [to name two scholars famously connected as symbols of the discusive clash]. This contribution, then, aims at a kind of metatheoretical reflection on the study of religion and theology both as discourses that serve mythmaking, identity formation, culturally strategic purposes. That is, from the discourse perspective that is proposed here, it is possible to move beyond the definitional divide between religious studies and theology-even beyond 'religion' itself-to focus on the mundanely material practices that constitute that which is called religion. None of the terms used for studying religion [or theology] are insider terms and are imported from outside of the folk practices to describe these practices. And in the way in which the terms are used-plus the history of the growth of these very uses and definitions-it is clear that the terminologies themselves bear the imprint of historical social discourses that occasioned the rise of their use. This proposal, then, is something of a metacritique of the language of the study of religion-beyond religion, beyond the study of religion and theology. And this, it is maintained, is in line with the aims of decolonial and postcolonial studies of the discourse of the study of religion and theology.
