SOME OBSERVATIONS ON THE EFFICACY OF MATERIAL MEDICINE

From the February 1908 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Has material medicine satisfactorily answered the age old query, How shall the sick be healed? Confronted by the problem of disease and its cure, men have turned to matter, to drugs, to "other gods;" but have these solved the problem? Apparently not, since there is more disease to-day, or rather there are more names for diseases, than ever before in the world's history. The Christian Scientist has no quarrel with the physician but Christian Science, as a system of healing disease.
