I’m not sure if there is a more controversial theologian living today than John Milbank, at least not in the circles in which I travel. People tend to fall in three camps: Pure hatred, pure love, and a general liking with caveats. There are other positions, of course. I for one really like John both as a person and as a theologian, but I do not always agree with him. So I fit more in the third category.
