http://www.freeminds.org/science/bio.htm

Extractions: Awake! When the design argument is considered, we are compelled to conclude that some animals have always eaten meat. (Does a tiger seem designed to graze on grass?) This in turn means either the Awake! Awake! answered this point in a reply to a letter from a reader in the January 8, 1983 issue, which reply said with reference to Genesis 1:29, 30: and examine some of its consequences. Existing Features One of Awake! as man turned toward lawlessness, the earthly creation, too, became chaotic. Man lost his loving dominion over the animals. Since humans could not control themselves peacefully, it is no surprise that the animals are in the same condition.... The animals.... began to live off one another. How about spiders? There are probably no more efficient predators in existence. Many are poisonous and many build webs. All eat other animals; none eat vegetation. An article in Technology Review , in discussing the application of natural toxins to medical treatment, mentioned how spider poison works: In the early 1980s, a team of researchers in Japan discovered the mechanism by which a joro spider paralyzes its prey. Experimenting with the nerve cells of squid, the scientists showed that spider venom acted very precisely to block the effects of glutamate, an amino acid that is an important neurotransmitter.

Lincoln/Net: Project Overview
In 1830 alone the American Bible Society was printing over one million biblesa year while the American Tract Society was turning out six million Tracts.
http://lincoln.lib.niu.edu/digitalprintculture.html

Extractions: Nineteenth century religion and reform were inextricably linked with the transformation of the means of communication in the early decades of the century. It is hard to imagine the spread of religious enthusiasm or reform sentiment without understanding how each effectively exploited print culture and contributed to technological change such as the development of paper making machines and the steam driven printing press. And it is hard to understand the character of print culture without seeing how both evangelical religion and reform promoted reading by creating easily understood and cheap forms of literature that could spread their message simply and quickly. In 1838, Grenville Nellen announced to an audience in Cambridge, Massachusetts, that they were living in "an ERA OF PAPER, and the AGE OF PRINT." While this news could hardly have been a surprise, many of those in the audience could doubtlessly remember a time when neither paper nor printed materials were especially plentiful and when printed matter reinforced what was already known rather than conveying what was novel and new. Perhaps some also recalled a time when books were so costly that they were to be read over and over again and implicitly contrasted that earlier day with the contemporary habit of reading widely and less intensively, of hurrying through the latest newspaper or novel, and then laying it aside permanently. "Shall we content ourselves with the post-coach speed of the eighteenth century, in the schemes for evangelization, while all worldly schemes are propelled with the locomotive speed of the nineteenth century?" asked the American Tract Society. "Shall we creep along . . . neglecting all the increased facilities Providence has given us for publishing the great salvation, while steam, and electricity, and the printing press are left to become the agents of ambition, avarice, and revolution?" The answer was a resounding no.

http://lincoln.lib.niu.edu/digitalvoluntaryassocs.html

Extractions: In the three decades before the Civil War, Americans joined numerous and varied organizations in a burst of voluntary activity to perfect the moral and religious character of American society. So significant was this campaign to transform American life that historian Stuart Blumin has suggested that the period represents "an era of voluntary innovation without parallel in American history." The voluntary associations date back to the 1790s, perhaps even earlier. The first societies, some exclusively male and others female, addressed the needs of "the poor and distressed" both within their own communities and beyond. While some of these conditions were economic and could be met with gifts of food, clothing or even money, others were not. Agreeing with clergy who emphasized the danger of religious indifference and ignorance or perhaps inspired by revivalism, many voluntary associations tried to meet spiritual needs. Some sought to provide families with Bibles or religious tracts while others raised funds for missionary efforts on the frontier or in foreign lands. Often initiated by a minister or members of a congregation, many voluntary organizations had a denominational affiliation. But as time passed, nondenominational societies with a broader membership also became common. Although some retained a local focus, perhaps the support of a local orphan asylum or a society for the relief of widows, societies began to form links with similar societies elsewhere through active correspondence (each society had a corresponding secretary). Broadening their perspective even further, many became auxiliaries to national organizations in New York. The opportunity for members of auxiliaries to attend national conventions usually held annually provided a broadening and unifying experience for people who shared similar goals but came from different places.

Historical Background The American Tract Society, a nondenominational Christian publishing house, was founded in 1825 by the merger of several small printing establishments. Believing that a very effective and inexpensive way to reach most of the world's peoples with the story of Jesus Christ is through the printed page, the Society produces Christian books, booklets, magazines, and leaflets. Each year the Society made available to prisons, hospitals, and missionary organizations free materials for their distribution. Military servicemen in seven major wars were provided Christian literature by the Society as well as the cadets at West Point who received Bibles each year. In the 1840s, the Society began distribution of their materials through messengers, known as colporteurs. These men, preferably single, were usually ministers or seminary students who were sent out and supported by various societies. Occasionally called on to preach, their primary tasks were distribution of materials and fund raising. Financial support for the Society's ministry depended (as they do now) upon the charitable contributions of their Christian friends.

Extractions: Pious Americans were shocked by Thomas Paine's The Age of Reason , part of which was written during the great pamphleteer's imprisonment in Paris during the French Revolution. Although denounced as the "atheist's bible," Paine's work was actually an exposition of a radical kind of deism and made an attempt at critical biblical scholarship that anticipated modern efforts. Paine created a scandal by his sardonic and irreverent tone. Assertions that the virgin birth was "blasphemously obscene" and other similarly provocative observations convinced many readers that the treatise was the entering wedge in the United States of French revolutionary "infidelity." Even before the publication of the Age of Reason , Thomas Paine was hated and feared for his political and religious radicalism by conservatives in England, where he had periodically lived since 1787. Paine fled to France in December 1792 to avoid trial for treason. In this cartoon, Paine sleeps on a straw pillow wrapped in an American flag, inscribed "Vive L' America." In his pocket is a copy of
