To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"" Our guilt is that, since we can pay allegiance to but one motivating force at a time, we forget the legitimate claims of others. " " We cannot of ourselves "play the part of Providence" as Lotze points out. '" By this he means that we are incapable of "laying hold of the coherent system of the world's course as a formulative and guiding principle. " The final step is to state the consequences of contra- diction. Not only is the individual divided against itself, " in an attempt to serve two ...masters, one finite and one infinite; but, as with Hegel, the sides to the conflict have equal right. '" At the same time, each in its claim to right must be a denial of the same right in the other. In dra- 57 matic action we watch this contradiction leading to such results that a resolution of the difficulty is precluded, and duplicity made necessary. The impossibility of reconcil- iation is made by Bahnsen the peculiar property of the "innermost core of reality" which is torn asunder and illogically divided.
