David Bentley Hart Quotes

Precisely Because God Does Not Determine Himself In Creation - Because There Is No Dialectical Necessity Binding Him To Time Or Chaos, No Need To Forge His Identity In The Fires Of History - In Creating He Reveals Himself Truly. Thus Every Evil That Time Comprises, Natural Or Moral - A Worthless Distinction, Really, Since Human Nature Is A Natural Phenomenon - Is An Arraignment Of God's Goodness: Every Death Of A Child, Every Chance Calamity, Every Act Of Malice; Everything Diseased, Thwarted, Pitiless, Purposeless, Or Cruel; And, Until The End Of All Things, No Answer Has Been Given.

Precisely Because Creation Is Not A Theogony, All Of It Is Theophany.

(from Radical Orthodoxy 3.1 (2015):1-17)
