This chapter #3 is comprised of 90 questions and answers.
3	    What is organic life? 

  	    Life is inorganic, infinite Spirit; if Life, or Spirit,
  	were organic, disorganization would destroy Spirit and
 6	annihilate man. 
  	    If Mind is not substance, form, and tangibility, God
  	is substanceless; for the substance of Spirit is divine
 9	Mind. Life is God, the only creator, and Life is im-
  	mortal Mind, not matter. 
  	    Every indication of matter's constituting life is mortal,
12	the direct opposite of immortal Life, and infringes the
  	rights of Spirit. Then, to conclude that Spirit consti-
  	tutes or ever has constituted laws to that effect, is a mor-
15	tal error, a human conception opposed to the divine
  	government. Mind and matter mingling in perpetual
  	warfare is a kingdom divided against itself, that shall be
18	brought to desolation. The final destruction of this
  	false belief in matter will appear at the full revelation
  	of Spirit, — one God, and the brotherhood of man. 
21	Organic life is an error of statement that Truth destroys. 
  	The Science of Life needs only to be understood; its dem-
  	onstration proves the correctness of my statements, and
24	brings blessings infinite.
