Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Goethe's Key to Faust: A Scientific Basis for Religion and Morality and for a Solution of the Enigma of Evil
Goethe would show us that this idea is directly at vari ance with all that can be observed in Nature and Man of the laws and sequences which govern the course of existence. He would make it evident that disbelief in a Controlling Power of life, and the consequent idea of an unlimited freedom to pursue happiness as an aim in itself, is a fatally destructive mistake; from which error most of the miseries of mankind can be shown to arise.
