The Times,
It is interesting to note from a recent New York despatch published by your paper that the leading psychologists, clergymen, and physicians are endeavoring to discover how much of Christian Science they can with propriety adopt in their practice.
The nature of Christian Science, its basis and Principle, its practice and application to the needs of the human race, are so diametrically opposite to what is called mental science, or suggestive therapeutics, that in order to adopt the good contained in Christian Science the exponents of these other systems would have to eschew their previous practice. The fact that the leading psychologists, clergymen, and physicians are willing to admit that Christian Science contains something which they may, with profit, adopt, is interesting aside from the subtle compliment to Christian Science. It marks one step in a progressive movement that has been very evident during the last decade or two. Christian Science has successively endured contemptuous indifference and bitter opposition, and it will survive the effort to transplant some of its teaching to barren and uncongenial soil. However, Christian Scientists can assure those who are endeavoring to compromise with systems of healing which employ the human mind or willpower, that no such amalgamation with the pure teachings of Christian Science is possible. The healing power upon which they depend is not the human mind, but the divine Mind that was in Christ, the Mind that is God; and it will at once be seen that there can be no platform upon which this radical Science of Christ-healing can meet and associate in practice with a teaching which confessedly employs hypnotic suggestion.
