LIFE AFTER DEATH
Sir,-In your editorial of January 25, entitled "Enigma Variations,’ you state that.these things. cannot be proved; they can only be declared, believed or rejected. Also you say it is comforting to kriow that the stipreme enigma will be forever outside the range of science. I maintain. that.the dife after death, the survival of human personality, has been proved over and over again. As to facts, one usually appeals to authority. There is a science known as psychical research comprised of men like William James, Sir William Crookes, Richet, Driesch, Camille Flammarion, Sir William Barrett, Sir Oliver Lodge and many more. In face of the findings of these intellectual giants, I shall be interested in the answer of our Listener debaters. Personally I have proved human survival, and to me that is greater than the illustrious names I have quoted. The life after death is the basis of all religions and survival has been scientifically proved.
