One clue to what is going on in the present study is as follows: “Perhaps”—one must (il faut) always say perhaps for God. There is a future for God and there is no God except to the degree that some event is possible which, as event, exceeds calculation, rules, program, anticipations, and so forth. God, as the experience of absolute alterity, is unpresentable, but God is the chance of the event and the condition of history.24
