'An interview over Zizek' on theology

The link below is an interview over Zizek on theology and addresses the following questions:

1. In general, what are the fundamental formulations of Žižek on theology?

2. What is the peculiarity of his approach?

3. In what sense are the works of Žižek, especially the latest ones, relevant to the current theological debate?

4. In what sense is the argumentation of Žižek on this subject complex and unusual?

5. How can we understand the claim of Žižek that, to become a true dialectical materialist, one must go through the Christian experience? Is not this about a paradoxical stance from him?

6. How can we understand the fact that Žižek is interested in the emancipatory potential offered by Christian theology?

7. How does Žižek analyze the continental philosophy and the future of Christian theology from the legacy of Paul of Tarsus? What is the significance of Paul, in this perspective?

8. To what extent are Pascal, Kierkegaard, and Chesterton leading thinkers in the theological stance of the Slovenian philosopher?

9. What are the main points of the debate between Žižek and Milbank in “The Monstrosity of Christ: Paradox or Dialectic”?

10. To what extent does the debate between these two thinkers deepen the dialogue between faith and reason?
