There may be two opinions upon Christian Science: there can be but one opinion on Mary Baker Eddy. She was unquestionably one of the dominant influences of the age, one of the most remarkable of its women, perhaps the most remarkable, certainly the most efficient. And she so represents and permeates the cult known as "Christian Science" that to give her important rank is to give her teaching important meaning.

It must also be admitted that the sweeping influence of this "Science" could not have been had not the "Science" itself contained the truth and answered what was plainly a very large human need. It is entirely possible, notwithstanding the adverse criticism, the mirthful criticism, that Christian Science has within it truth, whether new or old which shall withstand contemporary criticism and the neglect of time. If so, then the personal triumph of Mary Baker Eddy will be great and lasting.
