In a recent issue a clergyman, who discussed "The End of the Age and How to Meet It," makes reference to Christian Science and forms of theosophy and Buddhism, with the same lack of warrant that is found in the implication that Christian Science has gained its hold in the world through "woman's susceptibility." In classifying Christian Science with theosophy and Buddhism he has fallen into the error of grouping religious beliefs which have nothing whatsoever in common.

Christian Science is the religion of love, the teaching and practice of Jesus reproduced in the twentieth century, and demonstrated as the way to present day salvation. Whether or not its hold is due to woman's susceptibility may be judged from attending the Sunday services and Wednesday evening meetings, or public lectures, where will be found as large a percentage of men as in any other religious denomination, and among them a goodly sprinkling of business and professional men, who find in this teaching the religion of the Master exemplified and made plain.
