If God created the universe, there was a time when he commenced to create. Back of that commencement there must have been an eternity. In that eternity what was this God doing? He certainly did not think.There was nothing to think about. He did not remember. Nothing had ever happened.What did he do?

“Fear paralyzes the brain. Progress is born of courage. Fear believes - courage doubts. Fear falls upon the earth and prays - courage stands erect and thinks. Fear retreats - courage advances. Fear believes in witchcraft, in devils and in ghosts. Fear is religion - courage is science.” (The Ghosts)
