SCIENCE VERSUS MESMERISM

From the December 1883 issue of The Christian Science Journal

Mary Baker Eddy has been verified as the author by The Mary Baker Eddy Library.


The basis of Christian Science is, one Mind to govern man and that one God, and "thou shalt have no other gods," no other minds.

The basis of mesmerism is minds many and one mind controlling another with full liberty and ability to do evil as well as good.

The basis of Christian Science is, "thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not commit adultery"—because thou canst not; the law of God is written on thy heart that makes it as impossible as to commit suicide.
