true can be verified over and over again and again forever according to their formulas.
 Most of the stuff they teach in colleges is ancient hearsay from which they offer no positive proof. They hold guessing bees in those institutions in which the Professors and students waste their time arguing over silly theories.
 The poor devils remind us of the ancient Chinese philosophers who professed that none could be scholars who did not wear pigtails and long finger nails.
 Yes, many of these collegians go mad and some of them froth at the mouth when one tries to enlighten them with provable laws, or undertakes to show them how human conditions can be improved upon.
 Still, whether they like it or not they must be progged along until they get onto the right track. Why let them waste their time like bickering simpletons when for the same expenditure of mental effort they could absorb Lawson’s magnified knowledge and prove themselves useful to God and man.
 There is nothing in TRUTH to argue about.
 FALSITY causes discordant altereations that leads to hate and insanity. It is the fraudulent system of tribute that causes universal greed and degradation.
 Truth is knowledge — falsity is ignorance.
 The people must be fed upon truth, not falsity, if the human race is to develop itself.
 Truth is provable by Natural Laws.
 Take HEAT, for instance:
 The same temperature will act the same under certain conditions at any time or place. The same quantity of heat will dissolve the same quantity of matter in the same way today, tomorrow or a million years from now.
 It would make no difference whether you, or I, or someone else, would jump into a fiery furnace, any or all of our bodies would be quickly expanded by the heat and pass away in particles to be used over and over again and again perpetually in the make-up of other formations.
 Then again, take COLD; opposite of HEAT:
 At a certain temperature COLD would freeze the bodies of you or I, or any one else, and make them unusable any longer, except as materials to be used over and over again eternally to feed other bodies.
 It would certainly be a whopper undertaking to attempt to put together again a human carcass after it had been disintegrated and its particles had flown away to join other bodies, notwithstanding the professor’s pet theory that such a scrapplization will some day be accomplished.
 Now, let us make a brief examination of such a grotesque theory.
 Assuming, for instance, that one of these pretentious professors had been parboiled by neat and lay in some out of the way place that was infested by vultures whose natural work is to absorb dead bodies that have no other means of burial.
 The dead body of that professor would then become a part of a live vulture, wouldn’t it?
