Repudiates "Christian Psychology."
Bishop Hallowe, who is heading the movement of Christian psychology in Chicago, has made it very clear that this movement is not to be mistaken as a phase of Christian Science. Now Mr. Archibald McLellan, speaking for Mrs. Eddy through the Christian Science Sentinel, utterly repudiates any recognition of Christian psychology, saying: "Her teachings show that she cannot endorse as Christianity the two distinctly contradictory statements and points of view contained in the term 'Christian psychology'--otherwise Christian materialism."
Speaking of the teaching of Jesus, he says: "He never complicated spirit with matter, never taught the finite opposite of God, spirit, infinity, all. As revealed in Christian Science, God is unconscious of matter, for if he is spirit and all, he cannot know aught that would be the very unlikeness of himself in quantity, quality and divinity."
