The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Tales of the Klondyke by Jack London: and the stress of circumstance were sufficient to breed apostasy,
and for Sturges Owen it was inevitable. In the fear of man's
anger he would dare the wrath of God. He had been raised up to
serve the Lord only that he might be cast down. He had been given
faith without the strength of faith; he had been given spirit
without the power of spirit. It was unjust.
"Where now is thy god?" the half-breed demanded.
"I do not know." He stood straight and rigid, like a child
repeating a catechism.
"Hast thou then a god at all?"
"I had."
