There used to be a reading room in my city when I was a kid. Mary Bakker Eddy and all that, did they close down and disappear?

I'll have to consult Chip the Black Boy.


They all went to Tim and Eric from what I heard.

There are a couple in Melbourne I walk past pretty regularly. One in the CBD, one just south of the city in St Kilda Rd. Only about a 20 minute walk between the two.

I've heard that you don't have to just read books there. They have computer screens for people to read from. They call them the Christian Science monitors.

We have one in Bend, Oregon. Never been inside one, - I find some of the work fairly coherent spiritual teaching, mainly the metaphysical interpretation of scripture mostly....as most New Thought is.

I'm a graduate from the Divine Science school, which is similar to Christian Science in some of its funamentals, but differs some on some particulars.

Divine Science School (founders Malinda Elliot Cramer, Nona Brook & sisters)

Divine Science Church of the Healing Christ

Christian Science may have influenced or arose concurrent with Divine Science and other schools in the New Thought movement.
