Christian Science
Lecturer from
Minnesota Talks
Sim Andrew Kolllner, CJ5.B., of
St Paul, Minn., a member of the
Christian Science board of lec
tureship, declared in- a public ad
dress last night that racial and
religious prejudices, as well as
hatred and political strife, have
no place in the consciousness of
divine love. He spoke at the senior
high school.
The lecturer explained this ap
proach to problems of racial or
other prejudices by presenting in
several ways the basic teaching of
Christian Science concerning real
ity and unreality. That which is
like God, he said, is real. What
ever appears to be, yet is unlike
God, must be illusory, since God
is the only creator, and is infinite
ly good, he declared.
In further development of his
lecture theme, "Christian Science:
Its Practical Application to Every
day Life," Mr. Kolliner gave ac
tual incidents of physical healing
and the solution of business dif
ficulties and social problems.
The lecture was sponsored by
First Church of Christ Scientist,
Salem.
