Read the Introduction by Rev. Robert Maguire, D. D.

Atheism

A Diabolonian prisoner.[3]

"ATHEISM is first arraigned—the principle of Unbelief that dwells in man by reason of his carnal nature. It does not mean the spirit of Atheism embodied in a form, or wrought into a system of Infidelity, but rather that practical unconcern evinced by so many in the matter of religion, and of relationship to God."[2]
