Society the Redeemed Form of Man

Protoplasm means intellectual chaos ; means the resolution of the existing cosmos into absolute form lessness or disorder. That is to say : you cannot arrive at protoplasm experimentally or livingly, ex cept by disowning our present cosmical form and order, except by eliminating all that you organically are, with all that is contingent upon your organiza tion, namely : all your experience of life and con sciousness, every fact of appetite and emotion, of reason and imagination, of passion and action, every thing, in short, that constitutes you a living person and so stamps you of the slightest moment to phi losophy. Protoplasm, in truth, as an intellectual symbol, means the extinguishing of the soul or life or being of things, and the permission of mere bodily existence to them, without any source either for them to exist, or go forth, from, but what is essentially in ferior to themselves. For no one will pretend that TO THE INTELLECT. 245
