The first form into which this essence of Christianity could be poured may be described as a comprehensive ideal of life. As such it was opposed to those forms of life which had been developed in post-Atlantean humanity.

Freckles stood back and watched with awe and envy the gradual reclothing and repopulation of the swamp.
