Prof. Kilby explains the Vorgriff well and rightly critiques misinterpretations of Rahner. However, her portrayal of the traditional nature/grace distinction is worse than a caricature; it's inaccurate. It's not a matter simply of whether you can experience grace in your concrete life; it's whether the grace received is SUPERnatural, raising one up. Rahner maintains the distinction; he simply explains nature's openness to receiving grace more positively via the Vorgriff concept.
