The most important lessons to be learned from this great disaster are: 1.

That the universe contains no real god in any form whatever because anything to be a real god would have necessarily been on the Titanic with full knowledge beforehand of ported the' disaster to their friends and relatives and aided in identifying their bodies, and then reported to the senate investigating committee as witnesses to give their knowledge of the disaster. Souls that would not, do that would be such fool souls that their relatives should disown them. To imagine souls would hike right out on a wild goose chase hunting for heaven under such circumstances is "Life whence come it? Death the elements that pervade and make what is it? up all matter, whether organic or in organic. 5 Twin puzzles that make up the rid dle of evistence, these two questions How Life Was Created. have baffled mankind since mankind The dry, (technical details of just was.

And as when we search He made two different solu tions in distilled water, "one of them containing a small amount of sodium silicate the substance farmers know cessity of changing the course. It is not a sane belief to believe that such as 'water-glass' and use to store eggs in to keep them from spoiling and a learned the truth about thunder and the tides, about earthquakes and eclipses, the explanation of this greater mystery of life and death leaves all our old philosophies high and, dry, blasts all of t)ur painfully reared concepts, and demolishes all the dogmas of our doctrinaires. For science says tfiAav in anhatahnw a being was on the Titanic, and as there was not then the universe con few drops of pernitrate of iron.

Then, as results show, of what possible use or good was that eries is true and tnat the belief that people have souls is simply a religious superstition of ignorant heathens. Had the Titanic's victims learned Kerr's Discovery and given the money they gave liars on nature to save their imaginary souls from a fictitious hell the building of life; boats for the.

Titanic probably all of them would be alive today. None should invest their money in the perpetuation of religious lies on nature when they can see so clearly in the lesson of this disaster that it does no possible good to themselves nor anybody else while it perpetuates religious insanity in our race. imagined god? On what possible grounds should he be loved, respected and worshiped seeing that he never makes use of his imagined wisdom and power for the good of anyone? Those who believe God is a real being should hate him as they would a man who would have intentionally caused the disaster and then saved himself when he could easily have saved all 'Life is a chemical reaction; death is the cessation of that -reaction; living matter, from the microscopic yeastspore to humanity itself, is merely the result of certain accidental groupings of otherwise inert matter, and life can actually be created by repeating in the laboratory nature's own methods and "Think, for a moment, what this declaration signifies If it be true, where is theology? If you and I are merely physico-chemical compounds, slightly more complex than a potato, a little less durable than a boulder, what is the basis of our moral code? If man can lump together sand and salt and by pouring water on them create life, what becomes of the soul? "Exit theologyenter biology! It is significant of the world's readiness for the new doctrine of science that I mens of each solution separately in sterilized glass tubes about one inch in diameter and three inches long, but drawn down to a tapering neck. With the tube half full of the fluid, the neck was seal by heating, effectually preventing the entrance of any living, matter from the outside, and then the tube was heated to 130 degrees Centigrade, a point very far above the boiling point of water, for from ten to twenty minutes. Some of ithe tubes were then exposed to diffused daylight or placed in incubators maintained at moderate temperatures and kept there for varying lengths of time, some for weeks, others for months.

Living microscopic organisms of different kinds were found in the fluids, when the tubes were opened. The tubes which were opened soon after being heated up to a temperature sufficient to destroy all forms on board. Would you not have charg ed such a man with murder and sentenced him to death not a fit being to live? Then why do you not charge God with the same crime and banish him from human society as unworthy of it since, did he exist in reality, he would be an infinitely greater criminal 3. That the belief and teaching that the dead will be restored to life is a baseless falsehood unworthy of people claiming to have good sense and honesty because all should be able to recognize this disaster as sure proof that no god exists to care for the life of any person. And since no god exists to care for the life of people now and here, as this disaster proves, it is an insane idea to believe that any god exists to care for their life under any imagined conditions whatever.

When there three lessons taught us by the Titanic disaster are learned and accepted by the people generally religious insanity will have run its course in the human mind and the era of enlightened civilization will: have arrived. than any man could be? As the ship went down the band played "N- arer My God, to Thee," and all the idola ters believed they would be nearer of life contained nothing but inert matter. their idol when dead than when alive. But as God was on the boat with am able to write and you to read these questions without arousing more than passing interest.
