In Common Justice
The charge that Christian Scientists have so often to meet and refute is that they "worship Mrs. Eddy." That such is not the case we know, and that the tendency has been a subject of warning and loving admonition her writings attest.
This tendency to exalt and worship personality has been one of the strongest impulses of the human race. But as a matter of fact, the Founder of Christian Science has been one of the wisest of all leaders of any movement, in that she has eliminated her personality as far as is consistent with the success of the Cause.
On the other hand, looking abroad over the history of the world from earliest times up to the present day, we see religious, philosophic, and other systems so identified with the personality of their founders as to be called by their respective names, a pitfall which in common justice it must be acknowledged Mrs. Eddy has avoided.
