Any news watcher knows of racial conflict in varying degrees of intensity in many parts of the world. The situation calls for the remedy of Christian Science.
Racial prejudice not uprooted from our thought is cramping and unhealthy. It is entirely wrong and unspiritual in conception and practice. Not to put too fine a point on it, racism clogs spiritual growth and is itself an evidence of materiality. And the failure of those who love Christian Science to face up to it now could delay mankind's acceptance of the truth of being.
Discriminating against others on the grounds of superficial factors, such as skin color, is far more than an expression of the irrationality of mortal thought: it evidences the enslaving action of material thinking. The first and most important place for us to destroy racial bias is in our own consciousness. It is here that the uprooting must initially take place if we are to add something to bridging racial gulfs.
