The only robber—a false view of man
Crime Has No Victim
Probably all of us have had the experience of awaking safe and sound in our own beds after a nightmare. And someday every one of us will awaken from the dream—the false belief—of mortal existence to the safety of God's arms. The sooner we make the effort to turn away from the lies of materiality, the sooner we begin to realize where we eternally dwell, safe in God's world. In that world of Spirit and spirituality, of light, health, harmony, and beauty, we will find ourselves free from all belief in or dependence on matter.
Close study of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy shows us how even now to maintain our safety and harmony. This textbook of Christian Science explains all experience is subjective. It takes place in consciousness. Nothing goes on in experience that is outside of thought. There is no evil force "out there" to harm us; therefore we have the God-given power to free ourselves from any erroneous situation that would claim to project itself into consciousness and then manifest itself in our experience.
During the past several years the crime rate in the United States and some other countries has risen alarmingly. Practical solutions have been sought and new ideas initiated to deal with this problem. Human methods are commendable and necessary, but courts and prisons testify that crime is still running rampant and must be dealt with in a more effective manner. What can we do about this? Each day we can acknowledge the allness of good, of the one Mind, God, and claim this Mind as our Mind, the only Mind governing man and the universe.
