Evil is unreal

From the June 1985 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Animal magnetism: a term used in Christian Science to designate evil.

Christian Science: the revelation of the allness of God, good, whereby we can prove the falsity, the unreality, of evil.

Evil is unreal? Now, that is a revelation! Mrs. Eddy writes: "The Scripture pronounces all that God made 'good;' therefore if evil exists, it exists without God. But this is impossible in reality, for He made all 'that was made.' Hence the inevitable revelation of Christian Science—that evil is unreal; and this is the best of it."  The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany, p. 178.
