e^cpressed by the words right and wrongs good and had^ no man doubts — no man can doubt. Every man believes, and tbe very natui-e of his mind compels him to believe, that there are some things that ought to be done, and some that ought not ; that the former are to be approved, the latter to bo condemned. A sense of obligation, of accountability, every one feels ; no one can escape it. But if there is no God, and if the mind is nothing but organized matter, working according to fixed laws ; the ...words right and wrongs virtue and vice^ express what is false and absurd. One might as well condemn a man for having weak eyes, as a bad heart. Or if the Universe is God, and men are the most exalted part of the Universe, to whom are they accountable? Whose laws do they transgress ? What obligations can they disregard ? The human soul rises up from^ the inmost depths of its nobler nature to pronounce both these systems most false and most degrading. The philosophers themselves, whilst elaborating them, were warring against all that was noble in their own souls.
