lhe Mtidy ot uod International Lesson facta here recited that they are obliged to divest him of love and sympathy and he is thereby disgraced in the minds of civilized people. God-makers will try to cater to both classes and fix up a God to suit each class if possible, though they be very dissimilar. The best way out of the difliculty is for all the God-makers to discontinue that art. It is a very disreputable, disgraceful and dishonorable business. It is an art that can well be spared, and should be allowed to become one of the "lost arts." It is infinitely worse than the "gold brick" swindle or the "green goods" fraud.

It should be outlawed as are the other confidence games. Our children should be protected by law from being duped by it. The clergy and all religious teachers should be as much interested in this rescue work as any other class. Those quake, nine English and seventy na-tives killed. Man is killed by train.

Sixty entombed in Liter mine, only three men escape, no hope DAILY PROOF THAT THRRK IS NO GOD. OBJECT LESSON XVI. By the International Instructor for the Church cf Humanity. Above the graves of our perished loved ones the Church of Humanity proclaims Cod a. myth.

"God" is simply the name of a fabulous being as is "Santa Claus. lie has no more existance or realty than has Santa Claus. To worship him is a heathan vice and should be regarded as a crime among civilized, people. It is a crime against progress, civilization and posterity, and it will be prohibited in our public schools as soon as a majority of the Christians learn the truth about it. "Love is blind," and that is as true when one is in love with a myth as with a person.

Hence the object of the God-makers in making love for him the first and greatest of the commandments is apparent. They wish to blind idolators with love to the real nature of their idol. As a is entertained, terrific explosion just; who do not know God is a man-made the members of the Church of Humanity know God loves no one? 13. Why? 14. Who are these lessons pre-pared for? 15.

Is it necessary to prove to idolators God does not love them in order to rescue them from idolatry 16. Wherein do we find the proof that God loves no one? 17. How many of our race are killed every minute? 18. What do the clergy assign as the reason some escape death a while 19. Give the two proofs that this reason is false? 20.

Are they self-evident facts? 21. What proves these conclusions true? 22. Read the headlines from the daily papers telling of the destruction of our fellow beirig3? 23. In the light of these facts is not God's love and care for us, the clergy tell us of, a myth? 24. Does love manifest itself that way? 25.

What do the false churches tell us about our "Heavenly Father?" 28. Flow do we know it is untrue? 27. In the light of these facts should any one make the assertion? 28. Is it not a libel on fatherhood? 29. Should it not be resented by all fathers worthy of the name? 30.

Would any father who could prevent it allow his children to be killed? 32. What would he be if ho did? 32. Would any one desire to love him and live with him if he did? 33. What would his neighbors do with him? 34. Can there be a double standard for the treat ment of children, one for God and one for man? 35, Should God be required to treat his children as a good father would? 38.

What can be said of the art of God-making? 42. Should it be pro- after cage was lowered. Boiler bursts, character have themselves been victim- in shoe factory at Hroctori, fifty-five dead, forty three missing. In the light of these facts God's love and care is not worth the snap of your finger. Love does not manifest itself in that way.

We are told by the false churches that our "Heavenly Father" loves us so much more than any earthly father can do. Every one can see by the light of these facts it is untrue. That is a little word one is not often justified in using and should only be used where no other word will fit the case. But to make such an assertion of our "Heavenly Father" in the light of these facts, that all must see who read the papers, is a deliberate, willful untruth, unworthy of any clergyman who has a child he dare ac- 1 1 "1 A. 11 ized, and they should not only desire to be rescued but should refuse to be a party in victimizing others and advocate its prohibition for the sake of their children as they do the prohibition of other fraudulent devices.

They can do this more effectually by uniting with the Church of Humanity, as it is the only attempt ever made to organize those who know the facts about God for the purpose of teaching them to others and thereby rescue them from the idolatry of worshiping man-made idols. It is as disgraceful to worship a mind-made idol as a handmade idol, since the powers for which they are both worshiped are imaginary. Questions on the Lesson. 1. What is the lesson about? 2.

basis for that love they aro taught that God loves them. When we prove by daily objective lessons, which all can comprehend, that God loves no one, then the foundation on which! love for God is based is removed and there is no reason left for loving him. The members of the Church of Humanity have learned that God is a myth and hence need no further proof that he loves no one since it is a self-evident fact. But these lessons are giver, for those who believe God is a real being capable of knowing and loving them, hence the necessity of prov Knowieage. ll is a noei on father worthy of the name and should What is God? 3.

Can you name one If you can he is either an idiot or a fiend whom no one would love and respect, much less worship and li ve with. His Christian neighbors would mob him for refusing to sav.e his children.

There cannot be a double standard of goodness in this treatment of children requiring us to worship a heavenly father and mob an earthly father for refusing to protect their children. We must either praise man for refusing to love and care for hte children or condemn our "Heavenly Father" for refusing to care for his. They must be put in line and the same standard of ethics required of both. Some modern God-makers recognize this necessity and make a desperate effort to create a good, loving, sympathetic God in harmony with our ideas of a model earthly father, and apoligize for, or overlook the savage nature given him by the bible God-makers. They are unable to do that and make it harmonize with the facts the headlines prove without divesting God of the attributes of unlimited power and they are protected by the love and care of God.

But that theory is proven false by two infallable proofs: 1. That those who were killed were as worthy of God's love and care as those who are left, an 1 as God did not love and care for the unfortunate he could not love and care for the fortunate. That is a. self-evident fact that all should be able to comprehend. 2.

That those who escape through what the clergy claim is God's protection are killed a little later, hence could not have been saved until then through the protection of God since they are still as worthy of his love and care as before. Therefore, he could not have been the cause of their previous escape. That is another self-evident fact all should be able to comprehend. Conclusions based on this evidence are proven to be correct bv the reports in the daily papers of the slaughter by innumerable ways of our fellow beings that could and would be prevented -were there a God who knows and loves us. To save space I shall only reproduce the headlines, from newspapers of recent date, under which the sad misfortunes are given in detail.

Headlines India shaken by earth We Want All who get a copy of this issue to subscribe for the paper if they are not subscribers. All whose subscription has expired to renew without personal notice by letter. All editors who believe we are teaching the facte about God, and that it is right to organize to teach those facts to others, to join with us in this educational work. All who wish their children rtived Church of Humanity. All school teachers to refrain from teaching their students idolatry.

All the clergy to learn the latest discovery about God and help to teach it to the people. All the editors of religious publlca tionsto learn the truth about God and teach it to their readers. All the millionaires to remember the Church of Humanity and not passit by when distributing endowments and substantial gifts. Some good lecturers to do field work wisdom assigned him by former God-makers- They have a very difficult problem to solve. If they create a good, kind, loving and sympathetic "Heavenly Father" they are obliged to divest him of both power and wisdom formerly assigned him, and he will thereby be disgraced in the minds of savages.

If they retain in his makeup unlimited power and wisdom it is so out of harmony with the every -day from worshiping idol3 to join th for the Church of Humanity..
