Assumptions. They can be so limiting, sometimes deceptive, and often totally false.
From the Office of the Publisher;
the Writings of Mary Baker Eddy
For years I had a great desire to share with others the comforting and healing truth that Mary Baker Eddy's primary work, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, had brought into my life. But I had assumed that because no one I knew had expressed an interest in this book or in Christian Science, I would be proselytizing if I tried to share it. The arguments went something like this: "I can't. This relative has such a medical background"; or "That friend is a faithful member of an orthodox church"; or "My neighbor has absolutely no interest in religion, in God, or in anything spiritual." So where were all the "unprejudiced minds" See Science and Health, p. 570. Mrs. Eddy speaks of in her book?
