If we discover a desire within us that nothing in this world can satisfy, also we should begin to wonder if perhaps we were created for another world.

My argument against God was that the universe seemed so cruel and unjust. But how had I got this idea of just and unjust? A man does not call a line crooked unless he has some idea of a stright line. What was I comparing this universe with when I called it unjust? If the whole show was bad and senseless from A to Z, so to speak, why did I, who was supposed to be a part of the show, find myself in such violent reaction against it? A man feels wet when he falls into water, because man is not a water animal: a fish would not feel wet. Of course I could have given up my idea of justice by saying it was noting but a private idea of my own. But if I did that, then my argument against God collapsed too-for the argument depended on saying that the world was really unjust, not simply that it did not happen to please my private fancies. Thus in the very act of trying to prove that God did not exist-in other words that the whole reallity was senseless- I found I was forced to assume that one part of reallity-namely my idea of justice-was full of sense. Consequently atheism turns out to be too simple. If the whole universe has no meaning: just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was dark. Dark woud be without meaning.
