Summary

This quote by Voltaire highlights the paradoxical nature of the belief in God. According to Voltaire, it is impossible to fully understand or comprehend the existence of God, making belief in God an act of faith rather than reason. On the other hand, rejecting the idea of God completely seems irrational because it would require denying the potential existence of a higher power that humanity has speculated about for centuries. Ultimately, the quote suggests that the nature of God is beyond human comprehension, leaving individuals with the options of embracing faith or dismissing it altogether.
