“I am still baffled by those who feel that criticizing America is unpatriotic, a view increasingly being adopted in the United States since 9/11 as an excuse to render suspect what has always been an American right.

“We all must be mindful that the United States has diplomatic, civilian, and military personnel deployed in other countries with both challenging security environments and active terrorist networks interested in targeting not just our facilities but our people.

“Science regards man as an aggregation of atoms temporarily united by a mysterious force called the life-principle. To the materialist the only difference between a living and a dead body is, that in the one case that force is active, in the other latent. When it is extinct or entirely latent, the molecules obey a superior attraction, which draws them asunder and scatters them through space. This dispersion must be death, if it is possible to conceive such a thing as death where the very molecules of the dead body manifest an intense vital energy.” IfsMenBodyEnergyForceDifferencesSpaceUnitedPrinciplesCasesDrawsRegardActiveAttractionIntenseSuperiorsMysteriousManifestAtomsMoleculesLatentDispersion Book:Isis Unveiled: (Two Volumes in a Slipcase) Source: Isis Unveiled: (Two Volumes in a Slipcase)
