Brotherliness

Christian Scientists have been criticised from many different standpoints and for many alleged sins of commission and omission, but one of the most novel indictments yet brought against our people is that of a Congregational clergyman in an article contributed to his denominational paper. He says, "The attitude of Christian Scientists toward the churches of our order is at heart undoubtedly critical and hostile."

The editor of the Concord Patriot, who is in a position to know whereof he writes, answers this and other criticisms in an able editorial from which we quote as follows,—

"I have been a good deal among Christian Scientists, and have attended many Wednesday and Sunday services in Christian Science churches, but never, either inside or outside, have I heard a sharp criticism made by a Christian Scientist upon the Congregationalists, nor have I observed any hostility on the part of Christian Scientists toward other denominations.
