Without our understanding of freedom the irrational fact of the existence of evil in God's world cannot be understood. At the basis of the world lies irrational freedom, in the very depths of the abyss. And out of these depths pour the dark currents of life. This abyss hides all sorts of possibilities. The light of the Logos conquers darkness, cosmic order conquers chaos, there is no life, no freedom, no meaning of the process which is taking place.
Freedom is founded in the dark abyss, in nothingness, but without freedom there is no meaning.
Freedom gives birth to evil as well as good. Therefore evil does not deny the existence of meaning, but rather confirms it. God is almighty over being, but not over nothingness, or over freedom. In reality, freedom is aristocratic, not democratic. With sorrow we must recognize the fact that freedom is dear only to those men who think creatively.
