Townsville Daily Bulletin

In 1908 Mary Baker Eddy established a daily newspaper, The Christian Science Monitor, high moral standard of which has been praised by editors, business men, and public officials in every country of the world in which the paper circulates. The establishment of this paper was a colossal work. The article on Mary Baker Eddy published in the Townsville Daily Bulletin is rather misleading when it comes to describing the teachings of Christian Science.

Christian Science exposes the false belief in many minds and reveals that God is the only Mind. This is the Mind we all wish to express, for health, peace, and happiness are our birthright. The aim of Christianity is to "put off" or get rid of sin, sickness, or whatever is not like God, good, "because the carnal mind is enmity against God." In "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" Mrs. Eddy writes (p. 482): "Christian Science is the law of Truth, which heals the sick on the basis of the one Mind or God. It can heal in no other way, since the human, mortal mind so-called is not a healer, but causes the belief in disease."
