To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
— The balance of the Strength Outside over the shipowner's strength was God. What can the Sum of Theology add to that ? What can be added to that by all who have ever reasoned — " In endless mazes lost, Of providence, fore-knowledge, will and fate?" the task which Milton, the poet in him triumphing over the theologian, has given to the damned spirits In Hell. What can be added to it by all those poor, tired, stupid, angry folks who are always trying to apolo- gise for God, to vindicate the ways... of God to man, to explain to us that God Is not so bad as he seems ? Most of their trouble Is self-made. They look around them and deem what they see to be Evil, Theology: The Painted Window 231 and then they begin to find excuses for God. Yet all the time they are not agreed among themselves as to what is evil. One says that pain is an evil, another that pleasure is an evil ; one tells us that labour is the primal curse, another that idleness is a yet greater curse. One or another think that mar- riage, or that celibacy, or that money-making, or that losing money or that drinking wine, or that eating meat, or knowledge, or ignorance, or not going to church, or going to the rival church, Is evil; and so they set to work to excuse God for not being more like themselves.
