To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The very same act, however, which up to this pointhas been only an occasion for pity, becomes sin and entails guilt, whenit passes through my own mind and will as a defection from a will of Godin which I believe, and as a righteousness which I refuse. The confusionof guilt and sin in order to the inclusion of all under the need ofsalvation, as in the Augustinian scheme, ended in bewilderment andstultification of the moral sense. It caused men to despair ofthemselves and gravely to misrepresent ...God. It is no wonder if in theage of rationalism this dogma was largely done away with. The religioussense of sin was declared to be an hallucination. Nothing is moreevident in the rationalist theology than its lack of the sense of sin. This alone is sufficient explanation of the impotency and inadequacy ofthat theology. Kant's doctrine of radical evil testifies to his deepsense that the rationalists were wrong. He could see also theimpossibility of the ancient view. But he had no substitute. Hegel, muchas he prided himself upon the restoration of dogma, viewed evil as onlyrelative, good in the making.
