Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Creation of God "Si les nommes etaient capables de gouverner toute la conduite de leur vie par un dessein regle, si la fortune leur etait toujours favorable, leur ame serait libre de toute superstition." - Spinoza, 1650. "Il n'y a pas de moyen plus efficace que la Superstition pour gouverner la multitude." - Quinte Curce. "But in the temple of their hireling hearts Gold is a living god, and rules in scorn All earthly things but virtue." "Falsehood demands but gold to pay the pangs Of outraged conscience; for the slavish priest Sets no great value on his hireling faith." "But human pride Is skillful to invent most serious names To hide its ignorance." - Shelley. At this time, in this age of agitation, unrest, dissatisfaction, and doubt among the masses, and all classes, in every civilized part of the globe, in all communities and human organizations, in church and out of church, ecclesiastical bodies of all shades; besides the vast number of theories and doctrines of a popular socialistic, anti-poverty, communistic order, etc., a prevailing skepticism has seized the minds of men, as to the truth, validity, and stability of the entire religious fabric.
