The real question is not whether God exists but whether anything else does. For all the fools who say in their heart that there is no God—and they say it often in our age, in print and in life—God’s existence is one of the few fixed points on which the great philosophical traditions have converged. We owe an apologetic attention to the fads and retrogressions of our near neighbors, but that is no reason to privilege atheism as a theological interlocutor over those other traditions, above all the Muslim and the Vedantic, that are nearer to us in heart if not in home. The overeager ecumenism of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, which beat us all into unrecognizable unity upon the anvil of psychology or sociology or some vague spiritualism, should make us cautious but not inflexible on this point. It is remarkable how little Christian theology has profited even now from these sympathetic traditions.
