Excerpt from The Simple Truth

The material world is a world of effects, of forms, or what is commonly termed matter. It is a world of infinite variety, in which many ele ments seem to be manifested. They appear in the mineral, vegetable, and animal kingdoms, and in the manifold expressions of number, color, sound and form within these realms; they appear where ever the physical senses of man meet a response; and yet when closely examined all of these elements are seen to merge into one; one element which is common to all, the essence of all, and without which nothing that exists can have being; an essence which permeates and animates all things, yet is distinct from that which it permeates and animates. Men have called this intangible, all pervading essence, Spirit or God. It is the First Cause, in relation to which all else are effects.
