Christian Science Committee on Publication for Warwickshire, England, Reports

Newspaper contacts continue on a friendly basis. Two editors have shown further interest in The Christian Science Monitor, and have mentioned the awards the paper has received for its high standard and quality.

One editor ran a series under the title "Religion and the Man in the Street." This was comprised of letters or statements by representatives of various denominations. Most of these statements seemed to overlook the caption under which they appeared, and developed into a series of challenges to debates or doctrinal arguments. When approached by the editor, this Committee explained that our movement does not enter into theological or doctrinal arguments, which do not help the "man in the street," but that students of Christian Science know God as infinite, unchanging Love, which was the import of the Master's statement in Matthew, "For he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust." The editor said he felt this would help him to frame the statement he would write closing the series.

A reference appeared in this paper giving the title of a sermon that a suburban clergyman had preached on Christian Science. This permitted a written reply, which this office submitted to the editor, who included it in the week's issue.
