It is estimated that in the United States there are one million people who uphold the Christian Science creed—a creed that was first promulgated by Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy. For the most part they are earnest and cultured people. Without ostentation they worship God in accordance with their beliefs. Their interpretation of the gospel is somewhat different from the orthodox version, and this has brought forth criticism from those who follow the old time faiths. Whether the Christian Scientists are at fault and their critics are right, or whether just the opposite is true, is an open question. If the Christian Science church is founded upon error, it cannot live; but the fact that the church has lived this long, and has grown in popularity until it now has a million followers, indicates strongly that there is much truth in the teachings of the departed Founder and Leader.
