Excerpt from God in a World at War HE most fundamental of religious problems now as always is the problem as to the nature and existence of God. There always has been in these modern days of transi tion from dogmatism to science a good deal of questioning and uncertainty as to the existence of God. But there is perhaps no more of this uncertainty at the present moment than there was before the outbreak of the war. Some who believed half-heartedly may have lost their faith but some others who were in honest doubt are now able, through deepened experience and reflection, to make an equally honest confession of faith. Uncertainty as to the existence of God is always due to one or the other, or both, of two causes. Sometimes it is because of a defective idea of God. Where the thought is incorrect, experience refutes instead of verifying. Some times the doubt is due to defective religious experience. However correct the idea of God, apart from religion it can be but problematical, a vague possibility. Moreover, each of these defects has a tendency to aggravate the other, Wrong ideas of God result in a defective religious experience, and the defective experience fails to correct wrong ideas, until any specially religious experience ceases and belief in God is given up.
