"Interested," who writes in a recent issue of your paper, considers that Christian Science contains "much that can be indorsed and applied in religious and secular education."

Your correspondent's admission, however, is conditional upon Christian Science confining its attributes to moral or "incorporeal effects manifested through cultured environment individually and collectively."

Infinite Principle, as taught and understood in Christian Science, is applicable to every circumstance, environment, and condition in which mortal man may find himself, and cannot therefore be confined to any limits; otherwise, it would not be infinite. The healing and regenerating effects of Christian Science cannot be confined to the moral or mental, for Christian Science has already healed practically every type of physical ailment, malady, and disorder. Its effects in individual experience are measurable only by the spiritual understanding of the one seeking to apply it, and are not in any way dependent upon so-called "cultural environment."
