The Roswell daily record. [volume] (Roswell, N.M.) 1903-current, 1907-01-02


which but thinly DISCUSSES the auth
or's -excruciating modesty: The per-
usal of the authors publication heals
sickness constantly. If patients some
times seem worse from reading this
book change may arise from alarm
of h physician or may mark the
crisis of the disease. Perseverance in
its perusal has generally healed them
completely" Curing bodies which
have 10 existence-this reading of
her immaterial book, price three dol
lars-reminds one of the snake which
slowly disappeared by swallowing his
tail. Nothing but a promise of health
could induce anyone to wade through
this book, but certainly as Satan said,
all that a man hath will he give for
his life.
(s) Because Mrs. Eddy says thai
he who is ignorant of nygienic law
is more receptive of spiritual power.
This preeludes a person of even av-
erage intelligence, or cleanliness, from
becoming a great success as a Chris
tian Scientist. The danger of teach
ing physiology to a Christian Scent
ist is proven by Mrs. Eddy's state
ment, that you can even educate a
healthy morse SO far il physiology
that he will TAX cold without his
blanket. The epizootic, she says, is
a humanity evolved ailment which a
wild morse might never have. Thus
like the wild ass, the fool is happy
that he knows no more.
co. am not a Christian Scientist
not KILL" and the police in most cit
les seem unable to distinguish tine eff
fects of practicing Christian Science
from the results of other methods of
suicide and murder.
WO) Because Saint Paul had an in
durable affection, which he cons6d-
cred real, and also had himself cur
ed many real people-and knew AL
MOST as much as Mrs. Eddy on
some subjects.
I'D Because it has been observed
that altho those addicted to Christian
Science do not, like other people,
die, still sooner or later, even without
the help of doctors, they experience
a difficulty in living longer.
t12) I am not a Christian Scientist,
for mortal mind. ~strychni1e would
be as harmless for babes as milk.
Just what the result would be if ev-
cry n had lost his mortal mind and
sense is perhaps apparent only to
those in that condition; still it is
doubtful whether strych1ine and mud
would ever become a popular food for
infants.
(13) Because a person who believes
absolutely that matter, sin, and suf-
fering are really unreal, and who
there fore never felt a pa1g of pain
or conscience, can logically have no
more human sympathy than a dead
Turk.
I'D Because Mrs. Eddy's book says.
adam is a dam, an obstruction. This
suggests the thought of something
fluid, of mortal mind in solution" This
delicious imbecility rather suggests
the thought that somebody's mortal
mind" is in dissolution, but since we
are told this book is not the work
of human pen, Mrs. Eddy is of course
not responsible.
Q5) I do not be1ive in Christian
Science, because it teaches that Adam
fell up, i. e., evolution is the law of
life. For Instance, whereas in the
time of BALKAN only n dumb ass
was able to speak, now there are
many advocates of Christian Science.
16) Because so many matter of
fact Christian Scientists wear the
oretical clothes and transparent eye
glasses to improve the appearance of
merely apparent matter, which dis
