Excerpt from Christ and the and the Dramas of Doubt: Studies in the Problem of Evil

Perhaps the first great shock to the re ﬂective mind arises from the existence of moral and physical disorder in a universe created and controlled by a good God. However much certain persons may arise to affirm that evil, pain, sorrow, and mis fortune are but aberrations of the mind, such a solution can never satisfy the souls of any but the well fed, well dressed and comfortable. It is a useless thing for men whose lives are daily tragedies, and who are not satisfied with a perfectly selfish and, therefore, immoral solution. However one may go on in his isolated self-sufficiency.

Excerpt from Christ and the and the Dramas of Doubt: Studies in the Problem of Evil

In this early stage man was not a doubter. Despair may have been a constant factor in his life; fear surely was, but to his na'ive imagination there was no place for doubt. Doubt is not the product of those active days in the life of a race, a nation, or an individual, when struggle is being made for conquest of natural forces. Those nations that have had the hardest struggle for ex istence have ever been the most religious. Doubt comes with ease, with reﬂection, with fullness - physical and intellectual. It there fore never appears in decided form in early stages of civilization, when men are pio neering the world, but is, rather, the prod uot of more cultured days. The great literature of doubt appears not in the beginning but in the decadence of cul ture.
