Another Reply to Dr. Williams

Alfred Farlow

Editor of Hawk-Eye.

Dear Sir:—I have just received the Rev. A. C. Williams' second attack on Christian Science, published in your issue of August 5.

He writes: "Mr. Farlow denies the possibility of giving an exposition of Christian Science by one not a believer nor a practitioner." I can only reiterate what I have said before on this subject: it is as impossible for one to be certain that he understands the teachings of Christian Science without having practised them well, as it is for the mathematician to be sure that he understands mathematics without having demonstrated the rules which he has studied, and having actually solved problems and demonstrated propositions through this understanding.
