 Lack of awe and reverence is true of all atheists. isn't it9" asked Mir, Grove, "If there Is no belief in God and the hereafter, you don't expect them to show awe and revereneee Wouldn't you expect ridieule:"

 He Loved His Mother
 He had childlike. uneritical, adoration of his mother. and then, his aunt. who assumed his mothers place in the household upon her death, and a childish attitude toward his father ns a person too distant to be regarded ns conhdant, but whose wishes were law in the household. He never made a pal of his father or older brothers"
 Do you regard it as childish for a boy 10 have an uncritical love for his mother?" asked Mir. Grove.

Then ensued long vrangle over neither the witness could state speci- cally at what age the pineal gland lould rave calcifed in either of the afendants. The matter finally was it in abeyance.
