CHRISTIAN THEISM – 3
It is urged that man has fallen from his original estate of perfection into the imperfection that requires evil through which to understand good. Admitting this vague proposition, the science of man could never be learned, for we begin with the correct statement, the harmony and its Principle, to learn music; and if man has lost his Principle and its harmony, from the evidences before him he is incapable of knowing the facts of existence and its concomitants. Mary Baker Eddy (CS Journal, Vol. I, No. 5, Dec, 1883, p.1)
