African Traditional Religion versus Christianity: Some Semiotic Observations

Breaking away from the centuries-long theological tradition Dmitry Usenco offers a radically new--semiotic--reading of spirituality proceeding on his original theory of the initial cultural unity that embraces language technology and religion. African Traditional Religion comes into focus as a valid alternative and--in the long run--an equal partner to Christianity in the creation of a modern pluralistic society. While the authors concepts and conclusions may seem controversial to some none of the readers can discard them as irrelevant. Africas future will in many respects depend on her ability to preserve her cultural heritage in which religion plays a crucial part.
