Excerpt from Rational Religion, Vol. 4 Enan says, the totality of human experience may be taken as the foundation Of a reasonable creed. The sum of this experience tells us that man believes in an Infinite something; that he believes in Offering personal devotion to this Infinite something that the Infinite in some way reveals Itself; that men believe in a self-conscious individuality which survives their bodies that any violation of the internal sense of right and wrong must, sometime or other, be visited by unhappy consequences. The first revealed name of this Infinite something in the Scripture is Elohim. It is called Jehovah by the Israelites. We say God. The great question with which St. Thomas puzzled his teachers at Monte Cassino is, What is God? Poetic prose-writers may declare God to be a being of infinite beauty and perfection, which human tongue can not express, nor angelic nature comprehend, and yet leave us as much in the dark as ever.
