Excerpt from The Christian Idea of God: An Essay in Theology This Essay, like many other much more important things, was in process when the war broke out. It was finished at odd times afterwards, amid the new duties and anxieties that the war brought to the writer, as to countless others, and to very many of these in greater measure. It cannot be said to be written in view of new lines of reflexion suggested by the war. Nevertheless, its thesis is one that gains significance from recent events. If at the heart of the great conflict one finds a passion for power that took little or no account of moral considerations, it might be urged that the world's safety lies in exalting, with a renewed and serious enthusiasm, the moral values. But can there be any such enthusiasm without a deepening and quickening of the religious interest? May we not, in the last resort, trace the present calamities to a decline in faith?
