Please refer to SUBTITLE Text content below.  
  	    If matter, so-called, is substance, then Spirit, matter's
  	unlikeness, must be shadow; and shadow cannot produce
 6	substance. The theory that Spirit is not the	                              Matter is not
  	only substance and creator is pantheistic het-	                      substance 
  	erodoxy, which ultimates in sickness, sin, and death; it is
 9	the belief in a bodily soul and a material mind, a soul
  	governed by the body and a mind in matter. This be-
  	lief is shallow pantheism. 
12	    Mind creates His own likeness in ideas, and the sub-
  	stance of an idea is very far from being the supposed sub-
  	stance of non-intelligent matter. Hence the Father Mind
15	is not the father of matter. The material senses and
  	human conceptions would translate spiritual ideas into
  	material beliefs, and would say that an anthropomorphic
18	God, instead of infinite Principle, — in other words, divine
  	Love, — is the father of the rain, "who hath begotten the
  	drops of dew," who bringeth "forth Mazzaroth in his sea-
21	son," and guideth "Arcturus with his sons."
