Hypnotism

Hypnotism is becoming more active than ever. Certain professors are claiming marvelous cures, especially of nervous-wreck criminals, such as opium fiends, cigaret devotees, etc. At the same time we are told of other hypnotists who are accused of using hypnotism to give them power over their female patients. The thing is evil; and, if in no other respect, this alone should condemn it: No human mind should lose its consciousness in another's mind. No human will should be given to the control of another will. God made man free, subject to no will but High Heaven's. Let no man be subject to another: "Ye are bought with a price; be ye not servants of men." "If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed."
