MODERN SPIRITISM that they have come from them. I have not only pointed out the evil, but the good, so far as it exists, in Spiritism; but I have neither disguised nor denied its loudly asserted opposition to Christianity. While Spiritism cannot for a moment be regarded as a serious rival to Christianity, it is, in my opinion, one of the most dangerous means that are used to catch the unwary. The Evil Good Men Do One has only once more to study that marvellous drama at Philippi to appreciate its power for deception, and when such justly honoured names as those of Sir Wm. Crookes, W. H. F. Myers, Sir Oliver Lodge, and Sir A. Conan Doyle are associated with it, and give it the sanction of their support, it is no wonder that lesser men readily follow their lead.* It is only just, however, to add that the first two of the four were solely scientific students of marvels they did not understand, and only two can be regarded as active supporters of the distorted reflection of Theosophy, which constitutes the creed of Spiritism. I have finally given in brief, a sketch of what True Spiritualism really is, and now I must leave my reader to judge for himself (as indeed all men must do) where the truth lies, and to follow it wholeheartedly. * It is thus that a really good man may, unconsciously, do much harm.
