Text Content: Is spiritualism or mesmerism included in Christian Science? 12 They are wholly apart from it. Christian Science is based on divine Principle; whereas spiritualism, so far as I understand it, is a mere speculative opinion and 15 human belief. If the departed were to communicate with us, we should see them as they were before death, and have them with us; after death, they can no more 18 come to those they have left, than we, in our present state of existence, can go to the departed or the adult can re- turn to his boyhood. We may pass on to their state 21 of existence, but they cannot return to ours. Man is im-mortal, and there is not a moment when he ceases to exist. All that are called "communications from spirits," 24 lie within the realm of mortal thought on this present plane of existence, and are the antipodes of Christian Science; the immortal and mortal are as direct opposites as light 27 and darkness.
