I have always been a person of faith, but in my youth I rejected all religions because they did not answer my basic questions about God and life.
I didn't understand the Bible, either, or the applicability of its teachings to our daily life. I turned to the Oriental philosophies and others, which hardly touched me either.
That's when I discovered the book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. The first time I read it was an extraordinary discovery for me. I read it without stopping, from beginning to end, and not only did it seem intelligent and scientific to me, but Biblical texts became instantly clearer to me.
