Materialists are always in trouble. They build theories on nothing, and change them with the seasons. They glory in facts and build largely on imagination. They boast of logic and bridge chasms by assertions to conceal their poverty of connecting links. They leap from nothing to matter, and from matter to life, though an unbridged gulf divides them. They evolve the highest from the lowest, and yet ridicule the thought of the Higher creating the lower. They assume the eternity of matter, but deny the possible eternity of mind. They imagine force before substance, yet discard the Almighty and Infinite God. They scorn the faith of the Christian, but build on their own imagination. They confess their reasoning unsatisfactory and still plod in the dark, insisting that facts must justify them, though unable to find them. They treat living as if it were the offspring of dead matter, though no case of life out of dead substance is recorded.—Morning Star.
