Eye on the world: Shining light on the darkness of evil
Instead of giving substance to what’s behind terrorist attacks and groups such as Islamic State, “the better course remains in shining light on their darkness,” states The Christian Science Monitor in an editorial titled, "A beaming White House summit on extremism."
More ideas on this subject:
From Mary Baker Eddy: “We are sometimes led to believe that darkness is as real as light; but Science affirms darkness to be only a mortal sense of the absence of light, at the coming of which darkness loses the appearance of reality. So sin and sorrow, disease and death, are the suppositional absence of Life, God, and flee as phantoms of error before truth and love” (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 215 ).
In "Persistence in Truth": “... evil, or material belief, is an illusion, a mistake which, when corrected and replaced with the specific truth concerning it, fades out, for it cannot exist in the presence of eternal, radiant love.”
In "Let There Be Light": “There can be no limit to the intelligence, goodness, harmony, and abundance of man, whose attributes reflect the infinite creator and source of all, the infinitely loving, infinitely powerful Father-Mother; and error flees before this consciousness lovingly and persistently entertained.”
In "A Light Is Shining" (poem): “Piercing chaos and darkness, /Undimmed by terror and blight, /Behold, a light is shining /Over all the world tonight.”
