"God, Perhaps: The Fear of One Small Word" in The Insistence of God: A Theology of Perhaps
"'Perhaps' sounds like it has renounced all truth and has consigned itself to a regime of opinion. But in truth the society of the friends of 'perhaps' is also the society of the true friends of truth, not because they are in the truth, which means inside the secure confines of certainty and dogma, but in the sense of befriending it, seeking it, loving it, exposing themselves to its unforeseeable and dangerous coming, to the risk of the 'perhaps.'"
