80 SPECIAL CREATION 



is to make them rigid and stable in order to support 

 the body and keep all its organs and parts in place. 



What force or agency assembles the atoms of lime, 

 phosphorus, carbon and cxygen, and combines them 

 into the phosphate of lime, and the carbonate of lime, 

 to make the bones rigid and stable? Surely, it is not 

 the father, nor the mother, nor the embryo itself. It 

 would be preposterous to suppcse that the atoms of 

 liir.e, phosphorus, carbcn and oxygen, of their own mo- 

 tion, and automatically, assemble and combine them- 

 selves, chemically, in such prcporticns as to form the 

 phosphate cf lime, and the carbonate of lime in the 

 bones ; and that these atoms of the phosphate and car- 

 bcnate of lime group themselves, automatically, into 

 such mechanical arrangements as to form the bones 

 with all their processes, joints, cavities, perforations, 

 etc., and fit them together in the form of the skeleton. 



The formation of bones in the body of a single 

 animal, might, possibly happen by accident or chance. 

 But when bones are formed in the bodies of all animals 

 of the same species for thousands, or millions, of 

 yi r , , and wht-n all cf them, in the bodies of each 

 specks, have the same chemical composition, the same 

 Sir .ciure, form and si e ; we are compelled to assume 

 th . ,he same c..use, force or agency, which produces 

 b e-, .n each body, also produces them in every other 

 b >n brief that all bones are made by the same 



supernatural psychic and creative force. The same 

 is . e of every other tissue.

of simple-cells into bones, muscles, nerves, etc., hap-
