A must-see? Not for me

In the article ``Moviegoers Have Their Say on Stone,'' two young reviewers state that ``Natural Born Killers,'' can be a crystal ball for older people. This doesn't convince me it's a must-see film.

Approval of the film's brilliance and mixing of media styles was counterbalanced by doubts about who should see this satire. Though the film is not the Paul Revere of decadence, I ask those blinded by marquee lights and the mixing of all the media hype and gore: Aside from box-office profit and maybe a flirtation with the unnatural, what is the point?

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.
