If we are eternal, let things take their course.

Is the created being guilty if he exists at the instant of the transitions?
If he sins at the moment of a great transformation will he be punished for it after being its victim?
What becomes of the Divine goodness if we are not transferred to the regions of the blest--should any such exist?
What becomes of God's prescience if He is ignorant of the results of the trials to which He subjects us?
What is this alternative offered to man by all religions,--either to boil in some eternal cauldron or to walk in white robes, a palm in his hand and a halo round his head?
Can it be that this pagan invention is the final word of God?
Where is the generous soul who does not feel that the calculating virtue which seeks the eternity of pleasure offered by all religions to whoever fulfils at stray moments certain fanciful and often unnatural conditions, is unworthy of man and of God?
Is it not a mockery to give to man impetuous senses and forbid him to satisfy them?
Besides, what mean these ascetic objections if Good and Evil are equally abolished?
Does Evil exist?
If substance in all its forms is God, then Evil is God.

The faculty of reasoning as well as the faculty of feeling having been given to man to use, nothing can be more excusable in him than to seek to know the meaning of human suffering and the prospects of the future.
"If these rigid and rigorous arguments lead to such conclusions confusion must reign.

The world would have no fixedness; nothing would advance, nothing would pause, all would change, nothing would be destroyed, all would reappear after self-renovation; for if your mind does not clearly demonstrate to you an end, it is equally impossible to demonstrate the destruction of the smallest particle of Matter; Matter can transform but not annihilate itself.
"Though blind force may provide arguments for the atheist, intelligent force is inexplicable; for if it emanates from God, why should it meet with obstacles?
ought not its triumph to be immediate?
Where is God?
If the living cannot perceive Him, can the dead find Him?
Crumble, ye idolatries and ye religions! Fall, feeble keystones of all social arches, powerless to retard the decay, the death, the oblivion that have overtaken all nations however firmly founded! Fall, morality and justice! our crimes are purely relative; they are divine effects whose causes we are not allowed to know.

All is God.
