Concerned Quote by Sarah MacLean

![“If there is a God, He is infinitely incomprehensible, since, having, neither parts nor limits, He has no affinity to us. We are then incapable of knowing either what He is or if He is.

Let us estimate these two…” quote by Blaise Pascal](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/40c/blaise-pascal-167_affinity_if-there-is-a-god-he-is-infinitely-incom_664912.jpg)
