Prayer can heal discrimination based on age, sex, race, nationality, or any other factor.
For instance, a woman yearned to participate in a community organization but was unable to because no others of her race were members. At public meetings of this organization, she was required to use a side or back door and to sit in an area cordoned off especially for those of her race. A student of Christian Science, she knew she needed to understand more deeply that the liberating power of divine Love is supreme.
This individual's experience is similar to challenges that many people face today. We may be discriminated against by being deprived of a job opportunity because of age. Or we may be excluded from a social gathering because of nationality. In fact, we may be both the one discriminated against and the discriminator. One moment we may be excluded from a meeting because of our sex; the next minute we realize that we are avoiding another person because of his religion.
