Times

In and article published in a recent issue of the Times, under the "Real or Unreal," several statements regarding Christian Science were made. Inasmuch as those remarks may be misleading to some of your readers, I ask space for a reply.

Christian Science bases its statement of the unreality of evil upon the Bible. From beginning to end of that Book are found positive declarations of the omnipresence, the omnipotence, and the omniscience of God. The Bible also assures us of God's eternal, changeless goodness. From this it follows that God, good, is All; therefore only that which is good has reality, power, or presence.

The Bible also shows that in Biblical times the physical senses, or the "carnal mind," as St. Paul has it, claimed, as they claim at present, that evil, sin, disease, degradation, and death were actual and powerful.
