CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
ERRONEOUS THEORIES. (Fkom Opr Own Correspondent.) LONDON, October 27. “To neglect what God has given us and then pray for Him to help us in our sickness is blasphemy,” said Dr Headlam, the Bishop of Gloucester, in a reference to Christian Science when he _ addressed doctors and nurses at Bristol Cathedral. “ Christian Science is, from the medical point of view, erroneous,” he said. “It is a religious as well as a medical heresy. . . “ The point we must condemn is that it bids us cure by prayer, but at the same time it entirely neglects everything which God has given us to attain. “He haa given us understanding, by which we can study the laws of the human body. It is by that study and its application we should attempt to cure disease.”
