The Idea That A Good God Would

We Must Return To Nature And Nature's God.

If The Creatures With Fur/feathers/fins Are Our Brothers In A Lower Stage Of Development Then Their Very Weakness And Inability To Protest, Demands That Man Should Refrain From Torturing Them For The Mere Possibility Of Obtaining Some Knowledge Which He Believes May Be To His Own Interest.

However, When It Can Be Proved To Me That There Is Immortality, That There Is Resurrection Beyond The Gates Of Death, Then Will I Believe. Until Then, No.

Do Not Feed Children On A Maudlin Sentimentalism Or Dogmatic Religion; Give Them Nature. Let Their Souls Drink In All That Is Pure And Sweet. Rear Them, If Possible, Amid Pleasant Surroundings ... Let Nature Teach Them The Lessons Of Good And Proper Living, Combined With An Abundance Of Well-balanced Nourishment. Those Children Will Grow To Be The Best Men And Women. Put The Best In Them By Contact With The Best Outside. They Will Absorb It As A Plant Absorbs The Sunshine And The Dew.

Several Of My Young Acquaintances Are In Their Graves Who Gave Promise Of Making Happy And Useful Citizens And There Is No Question Whatever That Cigarettes Alone Were The Cause Of Their Destruction. No Boy Living Would Commence The Use Of Cigarettes If He Knew What A Useless, Soulless, Worthless Thing They Would Make Of Him.
