Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores religious questions raised by the First World War, including divine providence, the nature of evil, and the significance of individual life in the face of death. The author argues that the most fundamental religious problem is determining the nature and existence of God. He examines the idea that a finite God is in charge, or that God is responsible for the current war. Instead, the author posits that God is both great enough and good enough to be the object of human dependence. Turning to the question of good and evil, the author argues that the world, despite its imperfections, is the best possible environment for human development. Evil, such as natural disasters and human suffering, exists as part of a "law-abiding" and dynamic world. This dynamism allows for processes like pain and death to provide valuable lessons, while human free will and thought allow us to mitigate suffering and advance knowledge. The author suggests that the experience of salvation through religious dependence can protect humanity from moral evil. Ultimately, this book offers a nuanced examination of the problem of evil and the significance of human existence within a world shaped by both good and evil. The author's insights shed light on humanity's enduring quest for meaning and connection in a complex and ever-changing world.
