Editor Tlie Courier:
Yours of the fourth at band Borne
days. Our house is in an indescribable
mess from tearing down and additions.
Mrs B. is at Jeffrey, N. H., Miss B. at
Newton Highlands, the coachman and
I at home, boarding out, not the beet
conditions for philosophizing even
worse than an editor's office and to
top off it k terrifically hot here just at
present
My good friend, I do not think there
will be any conversion on either side.
At any rate I have no desire, and it
would be useless for you to nourish
such.
Your editorial on Atheists has been
read. You say "an Atheist is an egotist
supieme," to which various objections
can be made. In the first place, how
can you judge of an atheist fairly?
Can you put yourself in the place of
one? Admitted that the ignorant
atheist is an egotist, has he not his off
set among Christians? Can anything
equal the supreme egotism of the self
"elect," Presbyterian, or the average
minister who "knows it all," and all
Christians who accept their faith ready
made? Your deduction is on a par with those
of people who have lately so often as
serted that an atheist is of necessity an
anarchist, ergo being an atheist a man
or woman must be an anarchist. That
is false, and no logical atheist can bj an
anarchist. Admitted that the ignorant
anarchist is often Jan atheist, Herbert
Spencer and his following are intelli
gent anarchists, and Spencer ie an
atheist from the church point of view.
Now let's get down to this atheist
business, that you may understand it,
which it is certain you do not now.
There are atheists and atheists, deists
and deists, Christians and Christians,
all of whom think they have the eternal
truth, and rightfully for them. Now
I do not class myself with any of them.
First, a genuine atheist is an a-tbeist
that is. he does not believe in the God
of theism. He denies theology in toto,
rather than some kind of a God for he
makes one of nature, and gives to it
creative, causal, beneficent controlling
powers. Then there are the deists, who
believe in a God of some kind, but deny
the theological interpretation. For in
stance, Tom Paine believed in about
the same kind of a God a great good
a providing, a ruling God, and I am
not sure but a God who could be prayed
to, but he did not believe in the theo
logians, because many of them upheld
kings, and it was to dethrone kingB
that Paine tried to dethrone theology
not the Bible, but the theologians' ren
dition. Ingersoll was but a follower of
Paine. Then there are deists who
make a God of nature and claim that
nature does everything and is respon
sible for everything. And there are
deists who believe in a God in nature,
not nature as God, who bomehow cre
ates and controls, and yet never inter
feres with anything. Now I do not
believe in any of these things. In fact
I do not believe at all in any v. religious
.sense. I "know," and am not an egotist,
either. I do not think nature does a
single thing, but that the word simply
stands for all the sum of things. I
know I am one of these things one of
the million voices of nature, and that I
am nothing, save in comparison with
other things that fundamentally I am
as I am and can't be otherwise that
religion is the absolute knowledge of
the unity of things.
I do not believe in causation, but in
continuous action, and that out of this
action things have come not by "blind
force," as fables say, but inevitably. I
do not believe in law in nature, but the
word has come into use from regularity
of action. 1 do not believe in purpose
in nature; and, being a part of nature,
I don't believe in purpose in me, though
I do things which we call purpose
which are simply the result of ante
cedent attractions. Attraction is the
one universal force manifestation.
There is no other. For me where the
ism begins, knowledge and religion
cease.
I do not think for others. Everv man
is as nature is in him; but the trouble
with most men is that they have bo
many generations and centuries of hu
man nature, that they are not natural
children, pure voices of nature. The
corruptions of humanity have polluted
them beyond redemption.
Ethics for me, as you should know
is the science of Belf-preservation
morality the art. No man owes aught
to another, but everything to himself,
which if done ethically will leave noth
ing wanting for the other fellow.
I will Bend you a screed of mine
which may open your ideas that na
tural ethics are not what you think. I
can't do much in all this jangle, but
have given you something to think over.
During the winter I shall have time
enough.
Sincerely, ,
F. S. Billings.
