Subject: Theology v. Anthropology

Now that the class is over, I still have a few nagging issues. Girard has made no attempt to claim his analysis of scripture to be theology; however, it remains difficult for me to separate an anthropological reading or scripture from a theological reading of scripture. I do not believe it to be the case that a mimetic reading of the scriptural texts is mutually exclusive to Christianity. They just don't seem entirely Christological. Now, I was under the impression that "all theology is Chrsitiology." When we perform readings of the biblical texts, gospels and otherwise, should this not be an underlying principle while gleaning any sort of expository meaning from the text?
