The Rationale of Spiritualism: A Paper Read Before the Chicago Philosophical Society (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Excerpt from The Rationale of Spiritualism: A Paper Read Before the Chicago Philosophical Society

The nineteenth century marks the most important epoch in the history of the world. To it will be traced the genesis of a new line of progression. The year 1848, a time of political and social revolution, marks the transition from the artificial to the natural order. It was the year that heard the awakening raps at Hydesville. It was the rap of the spirit Master Mason, laying the corner-stone for a new social structure. Spiritualism puts human nature for the first time on solid ground. It is as broad as life itself. It is all-inclusive. All truths adjust them selves to it naturally. It is a universal solvent.
