Eddyism and Christian Science: a critical overview
The piece argues that Eddyism, branded as Christian Science, is primarily a philosophy and delusion rather than science or true religion. It contrasts historic Christianity’s acceptance of reality and evolution with Eddy’s idealist, pantheistic views, asserts dangers to belief, and criticizes Eddy’s claims of healing and divinity, labeling her as motivated by money and ambition.
