Excerpt from Questions and Answers MARY BAKER EDDY          What are the advantages of your system of healing, over the ordinary methods of healing disease?          Healing by Christian Science has the following advantages: —          First: It does away with all material medicines, and recognizes the fact that, as mortal mind is the cause of all "the ills that flesh is heir to," the antidote for sickness, as well as for sin, may and must be found in mortal mind's opposite, — the divine Mind.          Second: It is more effectual than drugs; curing where these fail, and leaving none of the harmful "after effects" of these in the system; thus proving that metaphysics is above physics.          Third: One who has been healed by Christian Science is not only healed of the disease, but is improved morally. The body is governed by mind; and mortal mind must be improved, before the body is renewed and harmonious, — since the physique is simply thought made manifest.   Excerpt from "Questions and Answers" Miscellaneous Writings by Mary Baker Eddy, pp. 33-34
