A recent issue of your paper contained a Sunday school lesson in which a minister said, "When you hear people saying ... there is no reality in sickness, sin, disease, or death, they are only illusions of mortal minds, ... put such people down as being flighty or light-hearted."

It is assumed that the minister's remarks refer to Christian Scientists, because Christian Science teaches that sin, disease, and death are unreal.

On page 472 of the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, writes: "All reality is in God and His creation, harmonious and eternal. That which He creates is good, and He makes all that is made. Therefore the only reality of sin, sickness, or death is the awful fact that unrealities seem real to human, erring belief, until God strips off their disguise. They are not true, because they are not of God."
