To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We do not mean that we can prove that things are right or IV.] DIFFICULTIES AND OBJECTIONS 117 wrong : we mean precisely the opposite — that ultimate moral truth is immediate, like the truth that two and two make four. It might, of course, be contended that the same Reason which assures me that goodness is worth having and that the whole is greater than the part, assures us no less immedi- ately of the existence of God. I can only say that I am sure I have no such immediate knowledge, and that ...for the most part that knowledge is never claimed by people who understand clearly the difference between immediate knowledge and inference. The idea of God is a complex conception, based, not upon this or that isolated judgement or momentaiy experience, but upon the whole of our experience taken together. It is a hypothesis sug- gested by, and necessary to, the explanation of our experience as a whole. Some minds may lay most stress upon the religious emotions themselves ; others upon the experience of the outer world, upon the appearances of design, or upon the metaphysical argument which shows them the inconceivability of matter without mind ; others, again, may be most impressed by the impossibility of accounting in any way for the immediate consciousness of duty and the conviction of objective validity or authority which that consciousness carries with it.
