The Christian Science description of man as God's image may seem difficult to comprehend for individuals not aware of the absolute fact that there is only one creation—spiritual, perfect, and eternal.
Those individuals commonly described as "perfectionists" are often the movers and shakers of society; the people who get things done—the creators, the managers, the organizers, the responsible people.
It is commonly believed that we have little or no control over our sight—that matter does the seeing for us, and consequently the condition of our sight is determined by the condition of matter.
