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!

I don’t agree that corporeal punishment is ever necessary. Mrs Eddy was right in her above mentioned statement. As a former recipient of the so called corporeal punishment when a child,I can assure you it only instills fear,distrust,anger,and hate. I’m very disappointed that his was even discussed as “sometimes necessary”. IT IS NEVER RIGHT!! to hit a child.
