To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The state- ment is false. Reason has this much authority at any rate : it forbids us, it prevents us, from believ- ing where there is nothing to believe. II. Now let us pass on to the second statement. The human conscience, it is said, is incapable of pass- ing judgment on the actions of the Deity. The believer, therefore, need not be staggered at the appar- ent immorality of his God. The Divine Being either (a) has no obligations at all, or (3) they are obligations which we cannot understand. ...(a) It is often asserted that God can be under no obligations of any kind, that He has a perfect right to do with us anything, or ever)rthing, or nothing. If we ask why, the answer we receive is, because He created us, because He is omnipotent. But this proves just the opposite. Is it not self-evident that a Creator incurs the most serious responsibility by the very fact of creation, just as a father does by the fact of fatherhood ? It is true that even this human relationship is often very much misunderstood.
