Try saying that in poetry

When you want to translate the silence of paired deerprints stated congenially beside a sandy stream Or yearn to preserve the skater's ballet script written faster than the eye can follow Or explain how moonlight abides in an empty room where someone has been singing Whatever needs love's evoking with language you can feel the way you can wrinkle velvet or feel an icicle Whenever space is limited but still you'd like a whiff of infinity -- Try it then.

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
