A theology of difference must not erase differences, as Paul would seek to do in Galatians (neither male nor female, Jew nor Greek), as this erasure homogenizes and offers a totality of uniformity. Rather, a theology of difference must incorporate and take into account differences, not to make them the same, but to make them equal (insofar as such a thing is even possible when you are talking about different things).
