they are thickly congregated. You
will speedily discover their "good
morals" The mass of the Chinese are
set of cowardly, bloodthirsty SEN
sualists as the recent massacres of
Christians will testify. With their
bestial habits, outlandish customs,
and childish superstitions, they are not
fit to be classed with the off scourings
of the great cities of civilization.
What have they ever done toward the
progression of humanity, or the allevi-
alton of human suffering?
And the same picture holds good of
all heather nations. 60 to India and
view the odious caste system, the
fatalists with their whining and un-
manly submission to destiny" Also
the demented priesthood who hold it
good to inflict injury on themselves.
What have they ever contributed to-
ward civilization?
Then let us pass from here to the
land of the unspeakable Turk, with his
deadly horror of soap and water. A
bath is a degradation to "good" Mo-
hammeden. What sort of morals and
religion do we find here? Look at the
harems with their plurality of concu-
bines and prostitutes. Look at the
Mohammeden idea of paradise, a sort
of seven story affair with an accom-
paniment of golden harps, wine and
couche-couche dancers. Who but a
nation of sensualists could look for
ward to such future.
Then let us pass from here to Egypt.
Egypt the land of the "fuzzy wuzzies,"
and the bowling dervis hes, with their
senseless inane capers and blind fanat-
icism. Cast your gaze over the savage
hordes of the Mahdi, where a foot
square lion cloth and shovel-headed
spear seems to be fashionable wearing
apparel. What have these fanat:cal
imbeciles done toward propagating
good morals? Go among the sinking
dens, and sinks of vice in Cairo and
view the result of their doctrines.
Then let us pass further south in
Africa. Examine the negro worship
ers with their loathsome cannibal
feasts and inhuman butcheries. Here
is good type of inidelism. Notice
the Hottentots, the lowest and most
degraded nation in existence. The
Kaffirs and Zulus and other tribes with
gorilla shaped heads and beastly appe-
tites.
Pass from here to the Malay penin-
sula where the devout inhabitants
spend most of the time knocking their
heads on the floor, doing obeisance to
bewhiskered monstrosities called gods.
Mere wooden images with google eyes
and grotesque attitudes.
Then look at France prior to the
Revolution; the time of Voltaire, great
est of infidels. What was the state of
society? Rotten to the core. Morals?
They had none. The most obscene ex-
cesses were INDUCED in shamelessly by
the highest dignitaries of the land
Finally producing monsters like Robes
pierre, Marat and other human vul-
lures.
Look at the "Symbolists" of today so
extensively treated of by Prof Nordan.
A class of drivilling idiotic degener-
ates, with insane ideas of art and
poetry, wallowing in obscene and SEN
sual filth with swinish satisfaction.
This is sample of infdel morals.
And so might go on calling off
race after race, class after class of
infidels, each with characteristics as
revolving and unnatural as its prede-
cessors. But I will not weary my
readers with further enumeration of
these human freaks. 1 will bring my
essay to close simply saying that the
doctrines of Christ with their profound
philosophy and humanitarian teach
ings will still prevail long after the
little carping critics have been swal-
lowed up in the night of the past. One
good Christian woman-one tender
hearted Christian wife, mother, or
sweetheart outweighs all heather bar
barians in the scales of human justice
today. LEO.
