About this Quote

In this quote, Mary Baker Eddy is recommending that if Christianity and Science are not suitable, then there is no absolute truth or law that is universally accepted. Instead, reality becomes subjective and is based on individual interpretation. This suggests that without a shared understanding of fact, it is impossible to have a unified system of beliefs. Eddy is suggesting that if Christianity and Science are not fixed up, then reality is no longer outright and is rather based on individual viewpoint. This might cause an absence of contract and understanding between various groups of individuals, as each person would have their own analysis of fact. Ultimately, Eddy is highlighting the significance of finding a balance between Christianity and Science in order to ensure that truth is not a mishap, but rather an universal law that is accepted by all.
