Christian Science Views

The following is an extract from an article which appeared in a recent issue of the Boston Herald :—

The following statement regarding Christian Science and its attitude toward the action of the New York Board of Health is the result of interviews by Herald reporters with Christian Scientists. Their names are not given because they carefully avoid controversy.

From the point of view of the Christian Scientist the science of healing is a part of his religion; therefore, any attack on or abridgment of this science of healing becomes obnoxious in a double sense : first, as an abridgment of his constitutional right to worship as he pleases, and, second, because it attacks that dearest and tenderest thing to man—his religious belief.
