Excerpt from book: most degenerate parents resisting the wrong done by others to their already blighted children. All education, personal or public, that does not lead to a perfected life is of only questionable value. It falls far short of its greatest good. There is nothing that so restrains anyone from wrong as the true, high conception of his own value and the value of others. In other worlds more perfect than ours there may be a plan by which the bestowment of life is the gift of one individual, as in some orders of plants and trees. In our own beautiful planet there is so much of maiming by accident, reckless living, physical and moral miasmatic poisoning, that it was most wise and conservative to give this vital trust to two.

This all-wise plan, if intelligently and fully seconded by both parents, should ensure to every child a gift of life superior to that of either father or mother; but for this, the decadence of men, of families and of people would be certain and rapid. If one parent has health and integrity it will have some saving power. There is not a homekingdom in the world where the best of two well-ordered lives is not demanded to give each child its rightful heritage. No man or woman is standing in a true place unless he or she is so living in heart and life that it may be possible to give a good body, a whole soul and unsullied character to children. Not only the clear voice of science, but the history of all individuals and races imperatively demand the most sacred and guarded use of creative power in a wisely chosen marriage. The highest necessity of every life is the gift of a large, full vitality. This is really the force which builds the body,...
