An
intelligent, observant business man, and his equally intelligent and discerning wife, who knew practically nothing of Christian Science, visited one of our Wednesday evening meetings for the first time.
So inaccurate does she deem the statements made in the opening article of McClure's Magazine for January, in what purports to be a "history" of the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, and the movement as well, that Mrs.
The Daily Times prints to-day evidence which seems thoroughly trustworthy that in an effort to attract attention and enhance the sales of their magazine, the publishers of McClure's have stooped to small business.
Your correspondent is evidently not well acquainted with the Christian Science movement, else he would realize that many of its adherents have been born and bred in homes which he would himself designate as "religious," though it is true that "very vague ideas about religion" are often to be met with in these homes.
The
question as to why the average business man is not reached by the regular orthodox doctrines is one that has troubled religious savants for a long time, and judging by recurring editorials in theological publications, it has not yet been solved.
