The Beliefs of Unbelief

Excerpt from The Beliefs of Unbelief: Studies in the Alternatives to Faith The world sees, to-day, an unbelief of a new type: vague, loitering, evasive, and strangely contented. Doubt of the sterner sort, doubt which "goes sounding on its dim and perilous way," doubt which is an anguish, and which is much nearer faith than it knows, is much less common than formerly. In its stead has come an unbelief which is as indefinite as a mist, as obscuring, and as little shaken by storms. It is not a landscape, but a vapour. "Christianity," it whispers, "is, if not untrue, at least unnecessary: life can be lived well enough without it."
