During my high school and intermediate mathematics classes, in learning logarithms and their applications, we studied the mathematical concept of change of base. Some logarithmic problems are insoluble if one tries to solve them from the wrong base. Change the mathematical base, however, and problems become amenable to solutions. The important thing is knowing the relevant

When I began working as a high-school teacher, I had not yet come to know of Christian Science. So, my concept of change of base as a problem-solving method remained at the mathematical level.

For more than ten years I did not attend church. I had become disenchanted with my church at that time because of what I erroneously perceived to be the hypocritical attitude of its clergy. I began investigating other ways of thinking. At one point during my search.
