Text Content: 15 Error of thought is reflected in error of action. The continual contemplation of existence as material and cor- poreal — as beginning and ending, and with Stages of 18 birth, decay, and dissolution as its component existence stages — hides the true and spiritual Life, and causes our standard to trail in the dust. If Life has any starting- 21 point whatsoever, then the great I AM is a myth. If Life is God, as the Scriptures imply, then Life is not embry- onic, it is infinite. An egg is an impossible enclosure for 24 Deity. Embryology supplies no instance of one species pro- ducing its opposite. A serpent never begets a bird, nor 27 does a lion bring forth a lamb. Amalgamation is deemed monstrous and is seldom fruitful, but it is not so hideous and absurd as the supposition that Spirit — the pure and 30 holy, the immutable and immortal — can originate the impure and mortal and dwell in it. As Christian Science repudiates self-evident impossibilities, the material senses 1 must father these absurdities, for both the material senses and their reports are unnatural, impossible, and unreal.
