And why did it have to be
A heavy cross He was made to bare
And why did they nail His feet and hands
His love would have held Him there

About Me
Clive Staples Lewis, God in the Dock
The ancient man approached God (or even the gods) as the accused person approaches his judge. For the modern man, the roles are reversed. He is the judge: God is in the dock. He is quite a kindly judge: if God should have a reasonable defense for being the god who permits war, poverty and disease, he is ready to listen. The trial may even end in God's acquittal. But the important thing is that Man is on the Bench and God in the Dock.
