The gentleman who opened the "Palestine in Rotherham"...

The gentleman who opened the "Palestine in Rotherham" Exhibition is reported in a recent issue of your newspaper to have drawn attention to the "great movement towards a liberal thought in the last half century among the Jews who think;" and to have further stated that "this has led, in the first place, to pure secularism, and a very large number have been led into those queer kinds of so-called religion which, I don't think, are going to justify themselves in the long run. I refer to Christian Science," et cetera.

Apparently the speaker knows little of Christian Science, otherwise he would not classify it with the other teachings he mentions, nor regard it as something apart from Christianity.

Today there are many admittedly Christian denominations which differ from one another in various respects. Referring to these, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, in her sermon "Christian Healing" (pp. 1, 2), has written, "The difference between religions is, that one religion has a more spiritual basis and tendency than the other; and the religion nearest right is that one."
