Univerzalizmus, intézményellenesség, szent és profán keveredése, valamint a gonosz problémája William Paul Young A viskó című művében
This study is the last of the three dedicated by its author to the discussion of William ’s highly disputed novel. The present one discusses several allegations brought against The Shack, including Universalism, anti-institutional and anti-religious manifestation, its alleged mixing of the holy with the profane, the problem of evil and its origin, its presumed Gnostic background etc. According to the conclusion of the analyst one ought to see the main purpose of the work, which is true redemption through learning to forgive from God Himself: all other aspects are to be seen primarily from this perspective in order to do justice both to the author and to the work. It is also important to view the impact of The Shack within the framework of the author’s available declarations and interviews, which give us further insight concerning his certainly positive intentions.
