“The learned gentry of our modern world are unlearned because they never have a doubt.  They try to make everything clear, and hence make everything mysterious.  They forget that even nature has a mystery; that there is something in this great cosmos of ours which is just so terribly mysterious that we cannot ‘see’ it, and that is the sun.  It makes us wink whether we like it or not, and yet, in the lightg of that great natural mystery everything else in the world becomes clear.  So too in higher realms, it is in the light of such a great supernatural mystery as the Incarnation that all things become clear, even the problem of evil.”  Archbishop Fulton Sheen (Old Errors and New Labels)
