SPIRITUALLY SCIENTIFIC THINKING IN BUSINESS

Richard J. Davis

Christian Science , being the Science of all true being, necessarily touches every phase of human existence. The relationship of Science to business and the application of spiritually scientific thinking to the problems of business and commercial life should be our constant consideration. Business today is so very big and ever expanding that it affects every other branch of human activity. It is successful business that expresses itself in better conditions in the family, in education, art, and government. Upon the successful and right conduct of business depend the harmony, the happiness, and to a certain extent the right unfoldment of home life, cultural development, and orderly free government. It is therefore important that Christian Scientists, both men and women, who are active in the business world should understand and rightly value their spiritual contribution to this sphere of human activity.

Practically every war or strife between nations is traceable in measure to economic dislocations and commercial struggles to be supreme and to take away from some other group or nation. Does not that condition in human experience need healing? Business needs Christian Science, as does government. It needs the love and consecrated thought of earnest Scientists and clear Christian thinkers. It needs the spiritually scientific thinking of men and women who, by the way they live Christian Science, can heal business of dishonest and selfish practices; who, because they have learned something of Love's allness, can eliminated strife, contention, and envy in commercial and professional life.

No one should think that he is any less a practitioner of Christian Science because he is active in commercial life. One practices when he utilizes what he knows, wherever he may be.
