In doubt alone

Taking people seriously just as they are. Ilse Aichinger writes in an essay entitled "Call to distrust": ""We must distrust ourselves. The clarity of our intentions, the depth of our thoughts, the goodness of our deeds! We must mistrust our own truthfulness!" She writes from the deep disappointment of her war experiences - certainly. But the unquestioned affirmative faith is faced with the challenges of life - whether it wants to or not. My thoughts on grief, death and suffering come up. I face... and I find: the faith of the Church must face life. The question of truthfulness is hardly sharper than in questions of death and dying, and the search for answers is hardly more urgent. This book has been translated with Artificial Intelligence.
