   1  jority of mankind, though they know nothing of this par-
     ticular case and this special person, believe the arsenic,
   3  the strychnine, or whatever the drug used, to be poi-
     sonous, for it is set down as a poison by mortal mind.
     Consequently, the result is controlled by the majority of
   6  opinions, not by the infinitesimal minority of opinions in
     the sick-chamber.
         Heredity is not a law. The remote cause or belief
   9  of disease is not dangerous because of its priority and
     the connection of past mortal thoughts with present.
     The predisposing cause and the exciting cause are
  12  mental.
         Perhaps an adult has a deformity produced prior to his
     birth by the fright of his mother. When wrested from
  15  human belief and based on Science or the divine Mind, to
     which all things are possible, that chronic case is not
     difficult to cure.
  18      Mortal mind, acting from the basis of sensation in
     matter, is animal magnetism; but this so-called mind,
     from which comes all evil, contradicts itself,

    Animal
    magnetism
    destroyed

  21  and must finally yield to the eternal Truth, or
     the divine Mind, expressed in Science. [[[In pro-
     portion to our understanding of Christian Science, we are
  24  freed from the belief of heredity, of mind in matter or ani-
     mal magnetism; and we disarm sin of its imaginary power
     in proportion to our spiritual understanding of the status
  27  of immortal being.]]]
         Ignorant of the methods and the basis of metaphysical
     healing, you may attempt to unite with it hypnotism,
  30  spiritualism, electricity; but none of these methods can
     be mingled with metaphysical healing.
         Whoever reaches the understanding of Christian Science
