Excerpt from A Study on Pascal: Three Lectures

The two views, when they are examined, are seen to have each its own necessary antecedents and also its own practical consequences. To believe that the way of salvation is narrow, is to believe in the depravity of the human heart. This belief leads us back to an original fall of man in which the whole human race was involved. Nor can we stop here. We are compelled to pass behind the Fall to the Divine Counsels in which it was decreed or sanctioned. Thus we are driven ultimately to the conclusion that man is not a free agent, that he is predestined to weal or woe, and that he cannot stand upright without the Divine assistance.
