Ancient confusion
Materialists contradict their own statements. Their
belief in material laws and in penalties for their infrac-
tion is the ancient error that there is fraternity
between pain and pleasure, good and evil, God
and Satan. This belief totters to its falling before the
battle-axe of Science.
A case of convulsions, produced by indigestion, came
under my observation. In her belief the woman had
chronic liver-complaint, and was then suffering from a
complication of symptoms connected with this belief. I
cured her in a few minutes. One instant she spoke de-
spairingly of herself. The next minute she said, "My
food is all digested, and I should like something more
to eat."
