courons... jusqu'à ce qu'advienne la grande fatigue.

Anselm Grün nous montre comment faire face à ces moments d'angoisse voire d'effondrement, qui peuvent dès lors être saisis comme autant d'occasions de revenir vers nous-mêmes. En effet, ces grandes fatigues ont la capacité insoupçonnée de nous mener vers l'essentiel de notre vie : le rythme de notre propre âme et de notre corps afin de retrouver notre source intérieure.

de la Bible, une divinité qui n'est pas le Dieu unique des trois religions monothéistes mais un dieu parmi d'autres, du nom de Iahvé, conçu comme le dieu national des seuls Juifs. Il relate ensuite, sans référence aucune au surnaturel, la généalogie du dieu Dieu, telle qu'il l'a reconstituée à partir des acquis de la recherche scientifique. Il explique enfin pourquoi cette croyance peut porter plus que d'autres à l'extrémisme et à la violence, comme on l'a vu avec les Croisades, l'Inquisition ou les Guerres de religion, et comme on le voit de nos jours avec les conflits du Moyen-Orient, sans compter l'influence, indirecte mais bien réelle, de l'idéologie monothéiste sur le nazisme et le communisme, ces deux fléaux du siècle passé.
