Even in theological misconceptions there are
grains of truth. The idea of hell and eternal
punishment of "lost souls" obtains in most re-
ligions. Though the idea is largely due to racial
hypochondria, it contains elements of truth.
Evil is followed by evil.
Man has believed that as moral laxity was in direct violation to the re- vealed laws of an infinite personal god, the transgression must be followed by infinite, eter- nal punishment; such has been the dogma of theology. Philosophy, however, corrects the argument of theology. It has dismissed the conception of infinite torture for a finite act It has modified the theory of a personal god.
