The only theism worthy of our respect believes in God not because of the way the world is made but in spite of that. The only theism that is no less profound than the Buddha's atheism is that represented in the Bible by Job and Jeremiah.

  • -- Walter Arnold Kaufmann 沃尔特·阿诺德·考夫曼

唯一值得我们尊敬的有神论信仰上帝,不是因为世界是如何形成的,而是尽管如此。唯一与佛陀的无神论同样深刻的有神论,就是圣经中约伯和耶利米所代表的有神论。
