Christian Science has proven to be the craziest, stupidest, and most dangerous pile of b.s. ever passed off as a religion that I have seen as of now. This book is like a mixture between Dianetics and the Bible. It claims that matter is an illusion, and all that is real is the divine mind. Through sin, the mortal mind makes error and causes health problems. If this sounds familiar, that's because this is a near carbon copy of Scientology with a little Jesus thrown in. These people however believe that all suffering is mental, and the only way to solve it is to...........ignore it. Yeah, the same thing that doctors and pretty much anyone over the age of 2 knows not to do, these guys do it with pride. And if ignoring doesn't help.........pray (Cause thats worked well with every hospital patient in the world). These instructions placed in the hands of an unlearned person or a child CAN BE FATAL! Their is nothing good about this book besides 2 sentences which say not to smoke or get addicted to alcohol. Rating- Science and Health, with Key to the Scriptures- 0/10 BAD.......JUST BAD.
Those who actually follow Christian Science to the letter, quickly kill themselves off, but you know the rest look both ways before crossing the street.
ReplyDelete"Matter is illusion," is part of ancient Hindu scriptures. Creating faith in what one hopes for - CS goes more like hypnotism. As far as fighting diseases they say, "Diseases are not real, the symptoms are not real, what is real is what we hope for." This is their USP.
ReplyDeletePersonal choices to believe blindly may be one thing, but when it becomes a parent who denies their child necessary medical care for reasons of their own personal beliefs, then there is a major issue to be concerned with.....
ReplyDeleteThe death of over 100 children have been atributed to the Christian Science.
