ABSTRACT
The conveying and receiving of information is so common an experience that we scarcely attend to it in ordinary life. 1 Yet a closer analysis, along the lines of the preceding essay by John Puddefoot, can offer a helpful way of penetrating the significance of familiar theological terms peculiar to Christianity. For example, the contemporary concept of “information” can shed important light on the possibility of a “natural” perspective on the traditional notion of revelation, thereby softening the distinction between revealed and natural theology and making the notion of God’s “informing” more coherent. 2
