You will say, I suspect, that this world of freedom, self-equipped for sin, is indeed a world which "lieth in wickedness," that in truth there is no real hope of good in it: it is a world of inherent and inexpugnable wrong, and not only damnable, but in fact already damned.”
— George Holmes HowisonThe Limits of Evolution, and Other Essays, Illustrating the Metaphysical Theory of Personal Ideaalism (1905)
