Having taken up the study of metaphysics and finding a few knotty problems I find no one here who can satisfy my inquisitiveness.

I would most gladly go to you and make a thorough investigation and study of the ScienceEditorial Note: Christian Science (a smattering is distasteful to me) but are at present unable financially to do so -

For the sake of the causeEditorial Note: The cause of Christian Science - that correct demonstrations may be brought about I trust you will elucidate two or three questions for me. First -

When perfect results are not obtained from treatment DoctorAs Written:Dr - Says " you use magnetism" but he does not explain the difference - or the dividing line between the correct method and magnetism, how can one distinguish As Written: distinguis he simply says "there is the point" - but does not explain it - I have not been able to get an answer from anyoneAs Written:any one - Is it the faith - the degree of spirituality in the operator -?

2nd

If God is Omnipresent He As Written: he is everywhereAs Written:every where - then he must occupy the space supposed to be occupied by All matter - and must He As Written: he not permeate in some way - His As Written: his Idea - man, Else is He As Written: he Omnipresent! then would he not be in man?

I. EsdrasEditorial Note: I Esdras is considered to be one of the books of the Old Testament Apocrapha. - XVI. 61st.

"He made man and put his heart into the midst of his body and gave him life breath and understanding," and -

Luke - XVII. 21stLuke 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. .

“The Kingdom of God is within you.”Editorial Note: Many modern translations of the New Testament favor translating this as "the kingdom of God is among you."

3d If the opposite As Written: opposit of Truth is Error - and the first light spoken of in I. GenesisGen 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. - was the light of God's presence - and darkness - (Error) - was simply the "oppositeAs Written:opposit" of that light - was not Darkness - (Error) coeval with light - (Truth)? and what was the origin of the darkness who the creator? For "God is invulnerable" & sin unknown to him -

4th

If there is no Personal God or material man - what is the "Perfect Model" we are to keep in mind in demonstrating? Can we conceive of anything perfect but God - and what kind of a "model," I cannot conceive of God as a model or anything tangibleAs Written:tangeable - and If man is his shadow or reflection what shall the creation of our Imagination resemble - one says - "take a beautiful rose" - but a rose is material - a belief - Can mortal, mind hold a perfect model?

I confess I am in the dark. and although I think the scienceEditorial Note: Christian Science is very correct and concise - and I accept the theory of nonentity of matter et ceteraAs Written:&c - and am willing to accept your lovely and true version of the Scriptures - I Sadly regret my inability to come under your immediate supervision - & receive a thorough mental training (which I hope to do in the near future) you will confer the greatest favor by as prompt a reply as convenient for I know you want these demonstrations to be done correctly -
