You have given generous space in a recent issue to "M.L.F.," who is making an attempt to prove that Christian Science is "ignorance concerning the truth" and has "misleading and unscriptural theories." Hoping that you will be just as generous in printing this reply I submit the following.

A definition of the word "prejudice," according to Webster, is "prejudgment without due examination." It is abundantly clear that your contributor is confounding man created in the image and likeness of God, pronounced by God "very good." with the Adaman made of the dust of the ground (nothingness), as depicted in the allegory found in the second chapter of Genesis. The failure of mankind to distinguish clearly between these two accounts of creation has been and will continue to be the main stumbling-block to the understanding of spiritual teaching.
