Excerpt from Hereafter, or the Future Life According to Science and Faith Notwithstanding these words of the overpraised agnostic, we hold that this future fate is founded on a solid basis and that we must admit its reality, unless we refuse to assent to all the crucial criterions which are the ordinary test of certitude and which are recognized by every philosopher.

Excerpt from The Future Life The subject of the following pages is fraught with the most thrilling interest; and is acknowledged by all, whether believer or unbeliever, to be of the most solemn importance, worthy of the profoundest attention of every individual; and involving, as it does, the destiny of man and the hope of immortality, it requires and has commanded the minds and pens of the ablest philosophers and most learned divines. Yet, after all, much labor is required to extract the true from among the false, and to place it in a tangible form before the popular mind. Though in most cases it requires great minds to discover truth, yet after it has been discovered, minds, claiming but few of the elements of greatness, may perhaps do the world as great a service, by gathering it up and arranging it in a popular form, as they who first discovered it. It is usual, however, for those who write or prepare books for publication, feeling that they have advanced but little that was unknown to the public before, to offer apologies for presenting the world with their speculations; but the reason I am disposed to give for publishing my views of the Future Life is, that such a work is needed. The experience of every preacher tells him that something more than has been given is demanded, to satisfy a great many minds on that subject; and by supplying this demand, I hope to do something for truth and human happiness.

Figuier (1819-94) was a French scientist and writer who held the position of Professor of Chemistry at universities in Montpellier and Paris. Aged 30 he abandoned his research to devote himself to writing on popular science subjects. He wrote scientific articles for La Presse and edited and published a yearbook from 1857 to 1894 - L'Annee scientificque et industrielle (or Expose annuel des travaux) - in which he compiled an inventory of the scientific discoveries of the year, and which was continued after his death until 1914. He was also the author of numerous sucessful works, notably La terre avant le deluge (1863), translated into English as World Before the Deluge (1872). In this work (Les Bonheurs d'Outre-Tombe in the original French) Figuier based his theories of the future life on no religion, but on science and reason, putting forward the idea that those who have practiced righteousness and cultivated their minds during their life on earth will go on to become the inhabitants of an interplanetary "heaven." Reprinted from the Macmillan new edition of 1904 and illustrated with 10 plates.

Excerpt from The Future Life: According to the Authority of Divine Revelation the Dictates of Sound Reason the General Consent of Mankind Our only merit, if this much may be allowed, is that of hav ing gleaned from the vast fields of Catholic philosophy and theology, and from the pages of history what seemed to us the best arguments, and the most convincing testimonies available for our purpose. In other words, our effort has been to place within the reach of our readers the hidden treasures of the past with a view to strengthen their faith, and equip them with such weapons of defense as will render them victorious against the sophisms and deceits of the unbelievers of our times. To all hu man aberrations on future life we Oppose the knowledge given us by our holy religion. Here everything concurs to assure us of the truth: the Teacher, who is Divine, the Son of the living God: the doctrine, a heavenly one, His Gospel, the wisest and purest that shall ever be preached; the school, the most perfect that is possible for men to frequent, Christianity, which He founded to transform the inhabitants of earth into citizens of heaven.

Excerpt from Life Eternal: Past Present Future I address myself more especially to those who imagine they believe in eternal life, ' though they do not even believe in a past life previous to birth; the result being that, instead of fixing their faith in eternal life, in reality they believe in nothing but a future life following on death.
