Then, after this humiliation of the infinite, man will still pretend that he has elevated the ideal of his God in making, by a logical conversion, him whom he had always called creator, a saviour, a redeemer. D. He will take on our flesh, our form, our passions, our joys, and our sorrows; will be born of woman, and die as we do. E.

A Correct answer
Explanation

‘He will take on our flesh’ in D should follow ‘God is to become a man’ in B. ‘After this humiliation of the infinite’ in C should follow D. So, we have the BDC link. A and E should either begin or conclude the para. Hence, EBDCA is correct.
