Such intercourse not only brings latent " distinction " into life, but it increases it more and more ; a beautiful and beloved opposi- DISTINCTION 125 tion acting as the scientific toy called the " electric doubler, " by which the opposite forces in the two juxtaposed discs may be accumulated almost with- out limit, and splendid coruscations of contrasting- life evoked, where there apparently was mere inert- ness before. The best use of the supremely useful intercourse of man and woman is not t...he begetting of children, but the increase of contrasted personal consciousness. All attraction and life are due to magnetic opposition, and a great individuality, appearing in any company, acts as a thunder- cloud, which brightens the circumjacent air by alluring to or repelling from itself all the dusty and inert par- ticles which float so thickly in the air of ordinary companies. The Catholic Church, whose forte^ I think, is psychological insight, is peculiarly sen- sible in this, that, instead of encouraging uniform- ity of thought and feeling, as all other Churches do, she does her best, in the direction of souls, to develop as wide a distinction as is consistent with formal assent to her singularly few articles of obligatory faith.
