The incomprehensible cause of motion having hitherto been adored by mankind,
under the personification of a deity, with attributes suited to the
imagination of the votaries, it is no wonder that more than nineteen
twentieths of animate matter, or the brute creation, has been sacrificed to
the cruelty, and the caprice of mankind, who created the deity and his laws
for the protection of their particular species alone. The Apocalypse of
Nature, which testifies and exposes the intimate connection and relation of
all matter, must necessarily destroy this partial demon, and his more partial
laws, and substitute in his place, a power that demands no personification;
and this is the effect of motion, or its instrument of operation, the Volition
of Man, which is the source of all [moral] good and evil.
