Mais si je vou\u00adlais me repr\u00e9\u00adsen\u00adter mon Dieu, je ne savais me repr\u00e9\u00adsen\u00adter qu\u2019une masse phy\u00adsique. Je m\u2019i\u00adma\u00adgi\u00adnais que rien ne pou\u00advait exis\u00adter sinon en cet \u00e9tat : cause majeure et presque unique de mon in\u00e9vi\u00adtable erreur. Car de l\u00e0, j\u2019ai cru que le mal \u00e9tait une sorte de sub\u00adstance du m\u00eame ordre. Avec sa propre masse r\u00e9pu\u00adgnante et informe, appe\u00adl\u00e9e terre quand elle est \u00e9paisse, ou t\u00e9nue et sub\u00adtile comme un corps a\u00e9rien, un esprit malin qu\u2019on ima\u00adgine ram\u00adper sur la terre. Et parce qu\u2019un sem\u00adblant de pi\u00e9\u00adt\u00e9 me for\u00ad\u00e7ait \u00e0 croire qu\u2019un Dieu bon n\u2019a cr\u00e9\u00e9 aucune nature mau\u00advaise, j\u2019op\u00adpo\u00adsais deux masses face \u00e0 face, toutes les deux infi\u00adnies, la mau\u00advaise plus \u00e9troite, et la bonne plus vaste. [\u2026] Mais la masse de mal oppo\u00ads\u00e9e \u00e0 toi me for\u00ad\u00e7ait \u00e0 t\u2019a\u00advouer fini. Je pr\u00e9\u00adf\u00e9\u00adrais donc croire que tu n\u2019a\u00advais cr\u00e9\u00e9 aucun mal \u2013 qui pour moi, dans mon igno\u00adrance, \u00e9tait non seule\u00adment sub\u00adstance mais sub\u00adstance cor\u00adpo\u00adrelle puisque je ne savais conce\u00advoir un esprit autre\u00adment que sous la forme d\u2019un corps sub\u00adtil qui se dila\u00adtait dans l\u2019es\u00adpace d\u2019un lieu \u2013 plu\u00adt\u00f4t que de croire que la nature du mal, selon ma concep\u00adtion, venait de toi. Notre sau\u00adveur lui-m\u00eame, ton unique fils engen\u00addr\u00e9, je me le repr\u00e9\u00adsen\u00adtais comme extrait du bloc de ta masse lumi\u00adneuse pour nous sau\u00adver. Ce que j\u2019en croyais se limi\u00adtait \u00e0 ma vaine ima\u00adgi\u00adna\u00adtion. Impossible de conce\u00advoir qu\u2019une nature comme la sienne puisse na\u00eetre de Marie, vierge, sans \u00eatre inex\u00adtri\u00adca\u00adble\u00adment li\u00e9e \u00e0 la chair. Et je ne voyais pas, selon l\u2019i\u00admage que je m\u2019en fai\u00adsais, com\u00adment y \u00eatre li\u00e9 sans \u00eatre conta\u00admi\u00adn\u00e9. J\u2019avais peur en croyant \u00e0 une nais\u00adsance char\u00adnelle d\u2019a\u00advoir \u00e0 croire \u00e0 une conta\u00admi\u00adna\u00adtion par la chair.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
