FROM THE EDITORS
"In the unlikely event of a water landing...." These words are often heard in the preflight instructions given to passengers a few moments prior to an airliner's takeoff. The flight attendant's announcement, however, might not always foster the confidence intended with that little word unlikely. And whether on an airplane or anywhere else, no one wants to fear becoming a victim of the so-called laws of probability and chance. ...
In the light of Christian Science, experience shows that notions of chance, luck, accident, fate, and so on, operate only in the realm of human belief and misconception. People imagine that there are subtle influences for evil or good where there is actually only one influence. And that influence is God—the only power, who causes only good.
