Letters to the Press from Christian Science Committees on Publication

with contributions from William Kenneth Primrose

Montrose Review

William Kenneth Primrose, Assistant to the District Manager of Committees on Publication for Great Britain and Ireland Montrose Review, Montrose

In a letter from one of your correspondents on the subject of "The Two Creations" in your recent issue, incorrect references are made to Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science and the author of the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures."

As the correspondence is closed, I will only refer your readers to the chapter on Genesis in the Christian Science textbook. Your correspondent, however, gives such a wrong impression of the attitude of Christian Scientists towards sin that I should like to quote the following from "Miscellaneous Writings" by Mary Baker Eddy (pp. 107, 108): "Mankind thinks either too much or too little of sin. The sensitive, sorrowing saint thinks too much of it: the sordid sinner, or the so-called Christian asleep, thinks too little of sin. To allow sin of any sort is anomalous in Christian Scientists, claiming, as they do, that good is infinite, All."
