  • Christian Scientists in the Courts
    Christianity Case Study – Minority in America 2018 Christian Scientists in the Courts Since independence, Christians have always been a majority of the US population, so it may seem curious to call American Christians a minority. However, some Christians have been rejected by the wider US Christian community and are thus “minoritized”—meaning they are treated as if they do not belong to the majority. Christians from such groups have often claimed they face persecution or hardships. One of these groups is the Christian Scientists.

  • The Role of Mary Baker Eddy in Christian Science Compared to the Role of Jesus Question​: What Kind of Es
    The role of Mary Baker Eddy in Christian Science compared to the role of Jesus Question: ​ What kind of esteem is Mary Baker Eddy held in by the Christian Science Church – especially in relation to Jesus himself? In Christian Science churches, the words of both Eddy and Jesus are prominent at the front of the sanctuary – seemingly with an insistence that they be given equal consideration and meditation. Coming from a Catholic background, it is of course well­bred into me that nothing is to be held in higher esteem than Jesus and his teachings. I wonder if you could shed some light on this for me. Response: ​ The question you’ve raised is one that Mary Baker Eddy herself frequently encountered – from critics and even from over­zealous admirers – and she was always absolutely adamant in her response. She would have thoroughly agreed with you that “nothing is to be held in higher esteem than Jesus and his teachings.” Although Mary Baker Eddy is honored by Christian Scientists as the Discoverer of Christian Science and Founder of the Church of Christ, Scientist, there is no sense in which she can legitimately be equated with Jesus or seen as superseding him. Rather, she saw herself as having discovered (not originated or invented) the divine law, or Science, which Jesus ​ ​ embodied and by which he healed the sick and sinful. She considered this Science to be the Comforter, the Holy Spirit that Jesus promised “will teach you everything, and remind you of all that I have said to you” (John 14:26).
