    Because of the way language works, this isn't very practical although I can see why it would be nice. One of the steps I take in analyzing a text is to identify and "resolve" all cases of deixis.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
