»Right to irreconcilability« – Is It Simply a Given?

Since a “duty to reconcile” would amount to nothing more than a paradox, a “right to irreconcilability” standing in opposition to such a “duty” would be a matter of course. Why mention it at all? But since the word “reconciliation” possesses a certain magic that lends its aura to the series title RECONCILIATION—A UTOPIA?, it would be stylistically inappropriate to speak too dryly. Yet there is a great risk of being seduced into falling back on the slick rhetoric of church conventions. Perhaps the magic of the word “reconciliation”—as mentioned earlier—might first need to be undermined in order to see more clearly. Is there such a thing as a pragmatic approach to living together without reconciliation? Or at least something like spheres of “diluted (non)reconciliation”? After all, as the Book of Job seems to teach, one has been able to make peace with God on this basis.
