Gaining Innocence

RICHARD A. NENNEMAN

A small child may be blissfully unaware of the evil in the human world because he has been protected by his parents and his human environment. Therefore his innocent attitude is untested, and he may lose it as he grows up.

The student of Christian Science, on the other hand, progressively gains innocence as he grows into the spiritual understanding that evil has no real basis from which to promote itself. The individual who expresses a degree of spiritual innocence that he has earned may often appear to have the same basic simplicity about him that a child has.
