"The belief in some being who can be the judge of all human matters is a very comfortable one - all wrongs will be righted and all rights will be rewarded"
About this Quote
The second clause is the seduction spelled out: “all wrongs will be righted and all rights will be rewarded.” The symmetry is almost contractual, the kind of clean moral arithmetic everyday life rarely offers. That’s the subtextual bite. People don’t only want meaning; they want closure. A cosmic judge supplies narrative satisfaction: villains get punished, the overlooked get their due, and chaos is demoted to a temporary plot complication.
Khamarov’s intent reads as quietly skeptical rather than militantly atheistic. He doesn’t argue there is no judge; he highlights the psychological payoff of believing there is one. That shift matters. It nudges the reader to ask whether faith here is conviction or coping, and what gets neglected when we rely on eventual correction. If justice is guaranteed elsewhere, the urgency to build it here can soften into patience, even passivity.
Contextually, coming from a late-20th-century writer shaped by modern disillusionment, the line feels like post-ideological wisdom: a small, sharp observation about how humans launder anxiety into certainty, then call it hope.
