Page "Thomas Edison" Paragraph 94

Edison was called an atheist for those remarks, and although he did not allow himself to be drawn into the controversy publicly, he clarified himself in a private letter: " You have misunderstood the whole article, because you jumped to the conclusion that it denies the existence of God.

There is no such denial, what you call God I call Nature, the Supreme intelligence that rules matter.

All the article states is that it is doubtful in my opinion if our intelligence or soul or whatever one may call it lives hereafter as an entity or disperses back again from whence it came, scattered amongst the cells of which we are made.
