What there is in Christian Science

Denver Republican

Fear rules the human mind, and it is always expecting trouble. Bad news hardly ever needs a corroborating witness to be believed. Good news must be vouched for by many witnesses before people will even investigate. This bent of the human mind must be changed, so that people instead of looking for sickness, sin, death, and disaster, will look confidently for health, goodness, enduring life, and peace.

Tell a man that the bank where all his money is deposited has failed, and he will believe you. Tell him that a big vein of rich ore has been struck in his mining claim, and he will doubt it.

Tell a man that his boy has swallowed a table fork and died, and he will believe you. Tell him that his little boy who has always been deaf has suddenly had his hearing restored, and he will not believe you.
