Esquire

In an article in Esquire occurs a reference to Christian Scientists which in its context might give the reader the impression that they practice hypnotism. It tells of a noted musician who submitted to hypnotism for relief from nervousness; and then refers to Christian Scientists as acknowledging the sovereign power of thought.

Christian Science acknowledges the power of thought to be sovereign only when it rests upon and proceeds from God, divine Mind. Hypnotism relies, not on God, but on the human so-called mind, and is despotic in its control, and often destructive in its effects. Christian Science, utilizing the law of God, Spirit, is unerring in its good effects.
