“Kennel’s use of political theology enables him to successfully problematize the old yet persistent conceptual distinction between religion and secularity… Where theological and secular commentators see mutual enmity, Kennel instead finds ‘normative entanglements’ that bind these purportedly warring entities together; this hidden filiation between religion and secularity grounds his interpretive accounts of seemingly divergent theological and philosophical voices from the past.”
