The Bulletin Board is for gratitude for Christian Science and the Church, as well as timely excerpts from the Bible, the works of Mrs. Eddy, and the early workers that help and encourage. We are very grateful for all posts that conform to these guidelines, but will edit or remove anything that the Practitioners feel is not in complete accord with pure Christian Science or in any way disrespectful of it.

We also ask that you keep your postings as concise as possible. If you quote the Bible, please use The King James Version, as this is what Mrs. Eddy used. Thank you!

Spiritualism “is presented as harmless entertainment, a comfort, spiritual solution, helpful, and sometimes a religion. When broken down you find this false system focuses on death and tragedy, separation from good, magnifies personality and ego, many creators, mind in matter with many minds and souls, relies on mortal mind reading, gives evil power, godless, and falls under occult.”

Thank you for pointing this out. A family member likes to watch a TV show where “ghost hunters” explore so-called paranormal activities in spooky locations. I have watched a couple episodes recently since I happen to be in the room, and I end up rolling my eyes. However, just the other day, I told this family member that if he were to watch this show, I would remove myself and not be in the same room. It came to me that it is not in my best interest to even watch it for entertainment reasons because it is so foreign to everything I am learning.
