That is why the fundamental truth about matter is so alarm-
ing to materialists.
In the past, matter’s essential nature was a concept recognized
and openly expressed by only a few thinkers and scientists. But it
is now an irrefutable truth made this certain for the first time. Now

that even materialists can deny. In the light of the facts revealed by
quantum physics, matter—materialists’ sole foundation—has been
shown to be an illusion within the perceptual world created for

eries.
It was not just atoms and molecules that were found to be il-

tains, planets, space and even the human body itself.
The claim regarding matter, which materialists had adopted as
