Good God or Cosmic Sadist?

"Bridge-players tell me that there must be some money on the game 'or else people won't take it seriously.' Apparently it's like that. Your bid-for God or not God, for a good God or the Cosmic Sadist, for eternal life or nonentity--will not be serious if nothing much is staked on it. And you will never discover how serious it was until the stakes are raised horribly high, until you find that you are playing not for counters or for sixpences but for every penny you have in the world. Nothing less will shake a man--or at any rate a man like me--out of his merely verbal thinking and merely notional beliefs. He has to be knocked silly before he comes to his senses. Only torture will bring out the truth. Only under torture does he discover it himself."

SoAmazing Review: The stakes for faith in God get no higher than after the death of a loved one. C. S. Lewis in A Grief Observed shares his intense struggle to make sense of his wife's death and to process his palpable pain and lingering loss. Read his inside story.
