The Book of the Damned
·

But
now
we
shall
cast
off
some
of
our
own
wessicality
by
accepting
that
there
have
been
falls
of
red
substance
other
than
sand.
We
regard
every
science
as
an
expression
of
the
attempt
to
be
real.
But
to
be
real
is
to
localize
the
universal--or
to
make
some
one
thing
as
wide
as
all
things--successful
accomplishment
of
which
I
cannot
conceive
of.
The
prime
resistance
to
this
endeavor
is
the
refusal
of
the
rest
of
the
universe
to
be
damned,
excluded,
disregarded,
to
receive
Christian
Science
treatment,
by
something
else
so
attempting.
Although
all
phenomena
are
striving
for
the
Absolute--or
have
surrendered
to
and
have
incorporated
themselves
in
higher
attempts,
simply
to
be
phenomenal,
or
to
have
seeming
in
Intermediateness
is
to
express
relations.
A
river.
It
is
water
expressing
the
gravitational
relation
of
different
levels.
The
water
of
the
river.
Expression
of
chemic
relations
of
hydrogen
and
oxygen--which
are
not
final.
A
city.
Manifestation
of
commercial
and
social
relations.
How
could
a
mountain
be
without
base
in
a
greater
body?
Storekeeper
live
without
customers?
The
prime
resistance
to
the
positivist
attempt
by
Science
is
its
relations
with
other
phenomena,
or
that
it
only
expresses
those
relations
in
the
first
place.
Or
that
a
Science
can
have
seeming,
or
survive
in
Intermediateness,
as
something
pure,
isolated,
positively
different,
no
more
than
could
a
river
or
a
city
or
a
mountain
or
a
store.
This
Intermediateness-wide
attempt
by
parts
to
be
wholes--which
cannot
be
realized
in
our
quasi-state,
if
we
accept
that
in
it
the
co-existence
of
two
or
more
wholes
or
universals
is
impossible--high
approximation
to
which,
however,
may
be
thinkable--
