Richard O. Shimer, Committee on Publication for the State of Indiana,
In your issue of March 31 you printed a part of a sermon in which a clergyman discussed the reality of sin, and took exception to the fact that the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, claims in her teachings that sin is unreal.

Frederick H. Astley Woodward, Committee on Publication for Devonshire. England,
In your issue of January 23 a clergyman is reported as saying: "I do not suppose there is any more fantastic theory than that on which Christian Science is founded, that matter and body do not exist, and that therefore pain cannot exist, and yet I suppose there has not been any faith healing which has been so successful.

Some
earnest seekers after Truth, who have found it difficult to understand the great message to humanity which is contained in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, after reading this textbook once have placed it aside, saying it seemed too abstruse to grasp readily, but at some future time they would read it again.
There
comes to each one who has been healed by Christian Science the momentous question, Shall I become a member of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts, and of a branch Church of Christ, Scientist?
