A speech delivered before the joint service clubs of Toronto, and reported in the Daily Star, would prove to be interesting reading if it were not for the inaccuracy of some of the statements.
Mrs. Winifred M. Hartley, Committee on Publication for Staffordshire, England,
Your correspondent, although quoting freely from the Christian Science, textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, continues to separate sentences from their context, and to read into passages a significance entirely different from that intended by the author.
The
writer recalls that there was once a little girl, less than five years old, who believed that the earth was flat and extended right out to the end of space.
Although
convinced that Christian Science is the truth, some are deterred from taking up its study by the fear that complete surrender of customary pursuits and cherished associations will be required of them.
The
thought of responsibility not uncommonly causes individuals a sense of burden, anxiety, self-depreciation, self-righteousness, or any number of other false beliefs about a selfhood apart from God.
Recently,
a distinguished clergyman radiocast a sermon in which, by many interesting similes drawn from mountain climbing, he sought to show that the seeker for Truth reaches the heights of a successful Christian life by methods similar to those the mountain climber uses to attain his goal.
