I am standing in a draft and I am afraid I will get pneumonia. Could a Christian Scientist please change places with me? Thank you.

I'm a Southern Baptist, not a Christian Scientist, so I'll gladly help since on the off-chance I get sick I can see a doctor.

I am curious, though... What do you have against Christian Scientists? I assume you're talking about the religion and not Christians who also happen to be scientists.

I am alluding to Mary Baker Eddy's nonsense. Christian Science is a particular religion and/or cult.

You could go to a Christian Science Reading Room to warm up.

Actually, the Christian Science Monitor isn't too bad, as news magazines go.

Yeah ... it does burn nicely, if somewhat quickly, eh?

I was going to say something on those lines..

anyway I am Christian and a chemist in training if that counts <_< I've thought about becoming a 'Christian scientist' but I'm done with subscribing with religion.

Hi ruveyn,

Sorry, I tried to contact a liason officer nearest NJ, but was seemingly transferred to an ombudsman that I believe was associated with the Objectivist Humanitarian Foundation of Ayn Rand Schools of Transferations (OHFART) of medical providers. They recommended contacting the Directed Service Providers Administration (DSPA), and talk to Dr. BraveCaptain for the determination of allotted expected value to the Atlas Foundation of Objectivism (AFO), but hearing of your dilemma, "Atlas Shrugged", and hinted of hiding your assets so you may be able to take your own medicine free of Rand's expected value restrictions of what's best for objective selfishness.

Oh Great of Great Smart Objectivists!! !:

Take Your Own Medicine, if the Great Ayn Rand decides to keep her grubby hands off of where your Ass-
sets, and GreenSpan doesn't leverage it out from under you firstly.

I have to go now, Atlas just dropped the Stupid Ball of Stupids again, and I can't tell whether he's choking
or laughing to death at Mary Baker Eddy's Rand jokes.

Are you, perhaps, barking mad? What does Mary Baker Eddy have to do with Ayn Rand other than they are both quite dead.

Why do Christian Science churches have handicapped parking and handicapped seating? It doesn't add up.

Hi ruveyn,

You request for a Christian Scientist, a believer in what you flip-flop as your regarded "religion and/or cult" of your labeled "nonsense" of Mary Baker Eddy, and I cite Ayn Rand's attempted kidnapping of Atlas, who loves Ayn Rand jokes exemplifying the flim of flam of frick and frack between Ayn Rand & Mary Baker Eddy of the futile attempt of again enslaving either Atlas or Mercury, while both ladies have Jesus scratching his head, and YOU question if I'm the person "perhaps" BARKING MAD???

Why didn't you just say that both Mary Baker Eddy and Ayn Rand operated cults. That is a true statement and a simple one.
