Zusammenfassung:In what follows, Jon Bialecki, an anthropologist of Christianity, and Eloise Meneses, a Christian anthropologist, discuss the matter of ontological differences between anthropologists and how these might be crossed effectively to further the work of the discipline.

The discussion begins with a proposal from Eloise that involves entertaining the possibility of schools of thought rooted in differing ontologies.
