VII.--EVERY RELIGION IS AN ABSURDITY.

Religion unites man with God or puts them in communication; but do you

say that God is infinite? If God is infinite, no finite being can have

communication or any relation with Him. Where there are no relations,

there can be no union, no correspondence, no duties. If there are no

duties between man and his God, there exists no religion for man. Thus

by saying that God is infinite, you annihilate, from that moment, all

religion for man, who is a finite being. The idea of infinity is for us

in idea without model, without prototype, without object.
