Excerpt from God and Man: Conferences Delivered at Nôtre Dame in Paris
Such is the first plan of Catholic doctrine, and the first plan of our destinies.
But is this all? Has God, in order to attract us towards him, limited himself to spreading out before us the spectacle of nature, and to lighting up in our intelligence the sun of reason? Is all other communication between himself and us - communi cation more direct, nearer, more profound - impos sible? Have we nothing more to hope for or pretend to, until the day when the mystery of our creation will be consummated in eternity? Ration alism affirms this it declares - and this it is which separates it from us in the very fount of its essence - that there is no communication between God and ourselves, save by the intermediary of reason, that every other mode is chimerical, all other inter course an imposture or an illusion. Catholic doctrine does not accept this decision - it believes.
