... | Under this startling caption our contemporaries of the Banner of Light, publish some of the laudatory notices of the late Mrs. Conant. Good gracious! What next? Is a new religion to be instituted? Must Spiritualists be called upon to worship Mrs. Conant as a divinity? The Pope contents himself with the mere {{Style S-Small capitals|canonization}} of a devout brother or sister; he or she is made a simple {{Style S-Small capitals|saint}}; Catholics have not ventured further than this; but the Banner wants an ''apotheosis! ''It would have us make of Mrs. Conant a goddess! How would that dear, good lady have recoiled from adulation like this! An apotheosis! Does the Banner really know what it means? Let Noah Webster explain; ''“Apotheosis ''(from ''apo, ''from, and ''theos, ''god.) The act of elevating a mortal to the rank, and placing him among the number, of the gods; deification, consecration.” It is bombast like this that makes Spiritualism the laughing-stock of the cultivated classes. But the Banner’s blunder is of a piece with many of the utterances through Mrs. Conant, claiming to be scientific. What wonder that Spiritualism has been mistrusted and laughed at? Is it not time for a little wholesome competition? | ||

... | ''To the Editor of the Spiritual Scientist:'' | ||
There are many eminent chemists. Prof. Cooke among the number, who believe, that, instead of there being sixty-four elements, there is but one. That this one universal element assumes more than sixty different forms (according to the velocity with which the atom moves), which constitute the molecules, or their arrangement or number, it not more wonderful than the changes which some of our so-called elemental bodies suffer in their allotropic modifications — ''Scientific American.'' | |||
What a sublime simplification of the “elements” of nature the foregoing suggests! bringing us within a step of the universal atom of matter, the ''macrocosmic atom, ''save that it is pulseless and inert! | |||
But the atom lives and moves. Whence its life and motion? Whence force? Is it not of God? Is it not “God”? | |||
