Product Information

Excerpt from Christian Science and Legislation: The Endeavor to Handicap Truth; Christian Science and Legislation; Christian Science: A Practical Religion The history of the human race declares that for ages humanity has been sick. During all these ages it has been conceded that a sick man has a right to try to get well and to 1 succeed if possible. By common consent he has been accorded the right to choose a remedy. There never was a time when this right of choice was t of importance to him, or when he was willing that it should be molested. In the exercise of this volition he has resorted to every conceivable curative system or venture, and to all the ways and means that the human mind could discover or invent. Of all these innumerable endeavors or systems, but one has given evidence of infallibility. Christ Jesus healed the multitudes of all manner of diseases, spontaneously, instantly. All other methods except his have been manifestly fallible and uncertain; all have been experimental, inadequate, and more or less disappointing, and strange to say, the different systems and theories which professedly have had one common object; namely, the healing of the sick, have ever been in a state of antagonism toward each other. Of the vast array of systems which are palpably fallible and uncertain, the drugging or medical system during recent centuries has attracted to itself a large number of adherents, and established itself in popular sanction. In consequence of this, the medical profession has secured certain forms of recognition and legislation which invest it with quasi-administrative or official functions and influence of a legal nature, and these phases of delegated authority have been made to appear as though they constituted a mopoly or preferment, in behalf of which there has been a continuing clamor for new legislation and exclusive privileges. There is objection to legislative enactments calculated to regulate the practice of medicine. This practice, which is tentative and uncertain, offers a large field for the operations of the charlatan and the malpractitioner; moreover, the remedies used are largely poisous, and it is desirable that the use of poisons be confined to those who best understand the danger of their use and who will do the least harm.
