541. I know that the opposite of what I say is true, but for the
\npresent what I say is still truer.

542. I believe with you, my friends, that God, if He exists, is

 543. God is the supreme Jesuit Father. He is ever doing evil
\nthat good may come of it; ever misleads for a greater leading; ever oppresses our will that it may arrive at last at an infinite
\nfreedom.
\n\t\t\t<\/span> \t\t\t<\/p>\n

544. Our Evil is to God not evil, but ignorance and imperfection, our good a lesser imperfection.

545. The religionist speaks a truth, though too violently, when
\nhe tells us that even our greatest and purest virtue is as vileness before the divine nature of God.

546. To be beyond good and evil is not to act sin or virtue indifferently, but to arrive at a high and universal good.

 <\/p>\n

547. That good is not our ethical virtue which is a relative and erring light in the world; it is supra-ethical and divine.
