I see in your issue of April 28 that there is a letter regarding the recent lecture on Christian Science at the Corn Exchange, Bedford, and I ask space in your next issue for the insertion of this letter, so that your readers may be correctly informed on the points raised.

It is stated that the lecturer did not explain, and that it is never explained by any spokesman of the Christian Science church, how, if man is perfect, our present sense of an imperfect man has arisen. Authorized lectures on Christian Science by members of The Christian Science Board of Lectureship in Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A., make this very clear.

The whole question of the perfection of God and man is contained in the first chapter of the book of Genesis and the opening verses of the second chapter of the same book. The words in the sixth verse of the second chapter, "But there went up a mist from the earth," convey the thought of a misconception or misunderstanding of existence, and it is this misconception which has increased through the ages, bringing in its train evil, sin, disease, and death.
