Thank you Paula, For presenting this wonderful account of information concerning the Copyright Act of 1871 by David Nolan. David was a well informed 'walking...
Paula There is no law preventing Peterson from quoting MBE and then paraphrasing that quote or paraphrasing the whole book for that matter. The book is in...
Marc, You are right about the law. The book is now in the public domain. As Bob points out and what I hope to be more clear about is that there no indication...
Gee whiz, can't we manage a little compliment to Ms. Peterson for her writing effort to produce a version of Science and Health for the more Reader's Digest...
Well, Gee Whiz! Would you expect a group of doctors to compliment some quack for revising the "Physician's Desk Reference?" When she referred to "spiritual...
Paula I don't believe they have to indicate sentence by sentence because in the introduction it is plainly stated that the entire book is a paraphrase of S&H. ...
Hi Bob, You write: "Does anyone ever wonder why Mrs. Eddy was SO Much against church, and why she bade her household workers not to go to church on Sunday, nor...
Hi Nancy and David, Most books written are interpreations and opinions of what they write. However, I cannot relate S&H and other writings of Mrs Eddy with ...
Dear Hanna, David Nolan explained this to me so well. I do not know if I can share the same essence of what he said, but I will try. How would it be, he asked...

Shift your focus of what's "really unnecessary" towards the apathy and complacency of the ranks... As far as reading the book, the excerpts are enough. Even...

Dear Abigail, Thank you for sharing your sweet explanation. It reminds me of the story of Jesus visiting the 2 sisters: Mary and Martha. It is never the...
Hanna-I don't recall the exact location of it. I would venture to say the Blue book, or possibly the Red Book. I did a short search using the term church in...
I believe most biographies of Mrs. Eddy mention that she did not encourage (nor discourage, usually) church attendance for her household members when she lived...
Look folks. We knock the Christians, especially the fundamentalists, for accepting the Bible as literal in every single word. Now when it comes to your...
Mrs. Eddy intended for her words to be taken literally, as far as I can fathom. (Does that apply to the Church Manual estoppel clauses as well?) She prayed...
Mark Hasn't the entire CS movement since MBE's passing been "confused" "in disarray" "factioned" ? I mean on one side/place TMC on another side the ...
I confess that I have not read all the messages on this topic, but here is my take. I hope I am not duplicating what someone else has already written. I...
I picked up on the word "literally" because Bill Sweet was using it. But that was a mistake, because I should have left it as "She prayed diligently over...
I always appreciate the love and gentleness behind Bill's messages. However, on this issue I think you have said it perfectly here, t4thinkers. I am surprised...
Dear Hanna, Your conclusion is exactly right. What Bob tells us about those who lived with Mrs. Eddy is true according to reliable biographies. RV/aka Abigail...
