The contemporary mentality oscillates between two temptations: either the utopia of an omniscient and algorithmic intelligence (“Laplace’s demon”) or the renunciation of the omnipotence of God because of Auschwitz (Hans Jonas). Using Aquinas, we propose to seek the providence of the Father in the hour of the Son’s agony, and to recognise that Christian providence is essentially linked to Easter.
