I. Something exists.
\begin{enumerate}[1.]
\item\relax
This does not admit of doubt.
\item\relax
We can have no idea of nothing.
\end{enumerate}
II. Something always has existed,
\begin{enumerate}[1.]
\item\relax
Else there could be no existence.
\item\relax
Nothing could not create something.
\end{enumerate}
III. Something always will exist.
\begin{enumerate}[1.]
\item\relax
Matter is indestructible,
\item\relax
Hence, eternal.
\end{enumerate}
IV. Something is a substance.
\begin{enumerate}[1.]
\item\relax
Substance is a body or thing,
\item\relax
Else a thing is not a thing.
\item\relax
A thing is matter, material.
\item\relax
Substance is matter.
\end{enumerate}
V. Matter is ever thing; every thing is matter.
\begin{enumerate}[1.]
\item\relax
See Axiom IV. § 2.
\item\relax
All that exists is matter.
\item\relax
Whatever exists, has size, location, form and weight.
\item\relax
These are the property of matter only.
\end{enumerate}
VI. All that is not matter, is nothing.
\begin{enumerate}[1.]
\item\relax
What is not some thing, is no thing.
\item\relax
See Axiom IV. § 3, 4.
\end{enumerate}
VII. There is no “spirit.”
\begin{enumerate}[1.]
\item\relax
“Spirit” is immateriality.
\item\relax
Immateriality is nothing. See Axiom VI.
\end{enumerate}
VIII. “God” is material—matter.
\begin{enumerate}[1.]
\item\relax
“God” is something or nothing.
\item\relax
If something—material.
\item\relax
If immaterial—nothing.
\item\relax
See Axiom V. § 3, 4
\end{enumerate}
IX. And subject to matter.
\begin{enumerate}[1.]
\item\relax
Whatever is material is formed of matter and governed by natural laws.
\item\relax
Consequently, me is a natural prediction.
\end{enumerate}
X. Matter is supreme.
\begin{enumerate}[1.]
\item\relax
The inevitable conclusion of the preceding Axiom.
\item\relax
If capable of producing the governing power, she is capable of producing whatever exists,
\item\relax
And vice-versa.
\end{enumerate}
XI. There is no “God.”
\begin{enumerate}[1.]
\item\relax
For matter is supreme. X.
\item\relax
Because there is no “spirit.” VII.
\item\relax
In consequence of every thing being material and subject to matter. V. IX.
\item\relax
Because there is no occasion for any.
\item\relax
Because he cannot be matter. IV. VI.
\item\relax
Therefore he must be a non-entity.
\item\relax
Nothing cannot be a cause. II. § 2.
\item\relax
We cannot believe what is inconceivable.
