CHRISTIAN SCIENCE is freeing many people from the mental malady called hurt feelings, which, until overcome, often leads to irritation, ill-will, hatred, and sometimes revenge. From this sordid mental seedbed frequently evolve physical disorders which resist removal until the mental state they objectify is corrected.
What makes hurt feelings? What feels hurt? By what process can hurt feelings be destroyed?
An answer is indicated in the statement by the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, when she says in the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 262), "The foundation of mortal discord is a false sense of man's origin." Then the antidote for every mortal discord is the true sense of man's origin. Since hurt feelings are a form of mortal discord, they have their beginning in a false sense of man's cause. They disappear when this false sense of cause gives way to the true idea of God.
